Only 4 per cent of nurseries in Wales offer Welsh-medium education, while just 8 per cent provide fully bilingual services, according to a survey by the National Day Nurseries Association Cymru. The survey also found that 91 per cent of day nurseries would like to give children more experiences with the Welsh language. One manager said, 'Management is keen to develop Welsh provision, but staff lack confidence and access to manageable local training provision.' NDNA Cymru pledged further support and funding for its initiatives in encouraging Welsh in day nurseries.
