The relevant data is available at Stats Wales.

Across Wales, the data shows a mixed picture. In certain areas, there is surplus capacity within the school system, in both English and Welsh-medium settings. The picture is influenced by falling birth rates, demographic change and population shifts across local authorities and therefore requires careful interpretation. In some cases, surplus capacity also reflects newly established or expanding schools that are still building up year groups over time.

A proportion of this capacity is planned into the system as per Welsh Government guidance, providing flexibility to respond to changing patterns of demand.
