Our Welsh language commitments
We recognise the important role the tertiary education and research sector has in fulfilling the Welsh Government’s vision for a bilingual Wales. Under the Tertiary Education and Research (Wales) Act 2022, we have a strategic duty to promote Welsh medium study.
As an organisation, we treat the Welsh and English languages equally in the conduct of our public business in Wales. We also recognise our role in facilitating a bilingual working environment for our people.
We welcome correspondence in Welsh and in English. Corresponding in Welsh will not lead to delays.
We will also scrutinise our policies and plans to support Welsh medium and bilingual education, and consider the impact of our policies on using the Welsh language internally and externally.
We will be subject to the Welsh language standards and we will receive a Compliance Notice from the Welsh Language Commissioner in due course.
