Response by the Portfolio Holder:
In Sept 2019, e-sgol was introduced in Powys in partnership with
Ceredigion and WG to broaden the provision available for Powys
learners. To support this
‘Clever Touch’ systems were installed in all Powys
Secondary schools and training provided for teaching staff and
technicians.
The following table outlines the
e-sgol offer made for Powys Post 16
learners for Sept 2019 and the uptake.
