Welcome to the Equitable Education section of the Powys Inclusion Google site. The Equitable Education team consists of one specialist teacher and two caseworkers who are here to support schools and families. The groups of pupils we support are: Gypsy, Roma, Travellers (GRT), refugee and asylum seekers, multilingual/English as Additional Language (EAL)/Welsh as Additional Language (WAL), and service children.
