P-04-443 : Welsh History

Petition wording:

We call on the National Assembly for Wales to urge the Welsh Government to make Welsh History Compulsory in our schools from the age of 7.

Supporting information: Teaching about Wales from the Celtic times right through to the present Day , including for example Llywelyn, Glyndŵr, all other Welsh Native Princes , Tryweryn , The Welsh Not , The Norman conquest, Act of Union and Industrialisation. As It appears that not all of Welsh history is being taught and is selective to cover certain periods and events .
