Neath Port Talbot Council have made a decision to reject the controversial proposals for a Swansea Valley super school in Pontardawe this week, at a special cabinet meeting that took place on April 19.
The long-standing plans would have seen primary schools at Alltwen, Llangiwg and Godre'rgraig closed and replaced by a new school for 630 full-time pupils and 140 part-time nursery age pupils, alongside a special learning centre and public swimming pool if given the go-ahead.
However, council bosses in attendance at the meeting voted against the development, following a lengthy discussion that included talking points on school transport, educational standards, and community impact.
