Ysgol Gynradd y Talwrn, Anglesey. Screengrab from Google Streetview. Opponents of plans to shut an Anglesey primary school have failed in their latest bid to block a £6m reorganisation of education in the Llangefni area. Meeting on Thursday, the council’s Corporate Scrutiny Committee voted to recommend the closure of Ysgol Talwrn and to build an extention at Ysgol y Graig which will increase the capacity of the 2009-built school to 480. The recommendation, which will now go to the Executive for a final decision next week, would see the 38-pupil school close after the new block at the Llangefni primary is completed by the summer of 2023.
