OU Welsh module a great success

Nearly 400 students have joined the first year of the L196 module at the Open University. Almost half of these are in England- which when you consider the almost complete lack of official support is excellent news. With these the numbers of paid-up and enrolled students in England excedes 500 a year. There are some 12 classes in London and various others scattered around England. At University level the OU is the sole provider in England but several English based students take the "Gradd Allanol' Welsh degree modules externally each year.
