The London Welsh School (Ysgol Gymraeg Llundain) is a Welsh medium primary school in London. The Welsh language is the language of instruction for all classes and activities.

Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity reported a deficit of £10,460 for the year ended 31 August 2025, reducing its total unrestricted funds to £62,145. The trustees have adopted the going concern basis but explicitly disclose material uncertainties regarding the school's ability to continue beyond the summer term in 2026 due to resource constraints. The financial outlook remains dependent on continued Welsh Government grant support and increasing pupil numbers to stabilize income.
What the accounts disclose
