Welsh Language Standards
The Welsh Language (Wales) Measure 2011 created the Welsh Language Standards. These give people the right to receive services from Cardiff Met through the medium of Welsh and make sure that Welsh isn’t treated less favourably than English. The standards - which apply to our activities in Wales - also:
- Make it clear how we must use the Welsh language
- Show us which Welsh language services staff, students and the public can expect from us
- Make our Welsh language services better and more consistent
Here’s a list of the standards that we have to follow. The Welsh Language Unit has created guidance to help every part of Cardiff Met meet the standards.
More details on how we implement the standards and make sure that Cardiff Met provides the best possible Welsh language services are available in our Welsh Language Policy.
The Welsh Language Unit works with staff across Cardiff Met to monitor how well the University is meeting the standards and to improve our Welsh language services. Every year, we publish a report which includes information and data relating to the Welsh language at Cardiff Met. The report also outlines the work we’ve done during the year to improve and promote our Welsh language services and the use of Welsh.
