About the Central South Consortium
The Central South Consortium (CSC), established in September 2012, is a joint education service for five local authorities: Bridgend, Cardiff, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Merthyr Tydfil and the Vale of Glamorgan.
The consortium acts on behalf of the five local authorities to develop a school improvement service that challenges, monitors, and supports schools to provide the best provision and improve outcomes for all learners in the region. CSC employs a small core team, supported by school leaders and practitioners from across the region in a collaborative and self-improving system.
CSC’s 2022-2025 business plan is structured around five priority areas in support of schools across the region.

- Leadership Pathways
- Equity & Well-being
