A teenager accused of the attempted murder of three people at a school in Carmarthenshire has appeared in court.

Ysgol Dyffryn Aman, in the town of Ammanford, was confined for several hours following the alleged incident on April 24.

Two teachers and a pupil were treated for stab wounds, although Dyfed-Powys Police later confirmed their injuries were not life-threatening.

The comprehensive school in the town of Ammanford has around 1,500 students aged between 11 and 18.

The day after the incident, the school was closed so the police could carry out the investigation.

Following the incident, director James Durbridge said all those affected would receive wellbeing support.

The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared via video conference at a brief hearing at Swansea Crown Court on Friday.

She faces three counts of attempted murder and an additional charge of “possession of a bladed article on the premises of a school.”

His Honor Judge Walters confirmed September 30 as the provisional trial date and listed it for up to three weeks.

The defendant will appear in court on August 12th.
