Thank you very much, Chair, and good morning, everybody. How do you see the tertiary education sector fitting into the national framework for Welsh language education and learning Welsh? Does the Bill make adequate and appropriate references to the sector in…

Thank you. Is the Bill's definition and use of the term 'Welsh language education' sufficiently clear in the Bill? For example, is there enough distinction between the teaching of Welsh as a subject and the provision and training through the medium of Welsh…

Thank you. So, am I correct in assuming that you don't believe that there are adequate mechanisms in place at present from your perspective, then, in regard to the Bill?

Thank you very much, Chair, and good morning. I want to focus on Part 4 of the Bill, if I may: how do you see the tertiary education sector fitting in to the national framework for Welsh language education and learning Welsh? Does the Bill make adequate and…

You’ve called for section 23(3) to be amended so that there is an emphasis on maintaining progression as well as encouraging it. Could you describe what would be the benefit of this for the learner?

Bil y Gymraeg ac Addysg (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 13
That's led me very nicely on to my next line of questioning, which is: does the Bill in your view make sufficient reference to tertiary education within the context of the national framework, and how would you like to see that being strengthened?

Bil y Gymraeg ac Addysg (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 13
Thank you very much, Chair. Good morning, everybody. The national centre—. Sorry, I should say that I will be focusing on Part 4 of the Bill. The national centre stated that ensuring that there is sufficient education workforce with the skills required is…

Cwestiynau i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gyfiawnder Cymdeithasol, y Trefnydd a'r Prif Chwip
Fel y crybwyllwyd yn ystod dadl y comisiynydd plant ddoe, mae'n drueni fod Llywodraeth Cymru, yn 2016, wedi diddymu’r targed ar gyfer dileu tlodi plant erbyn 2020. Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi osgoi cynnwys targedau mesuradwy yn y strategaeth tlodi plant yn…

Diolch yn fawr iawn. Rydyn ni saith munud i mewn i'ch ymateb i'r ddadl, ond nid ydym wedi clywed unrhyw beth am dlodi plant eto. Mae llawer o Aelodau wedi codi hyn yn ystod y ddadl, o bob rhan o'r Siambr, felly rwy'n credu y byddem mewn sefyllfa dda i glywed…

Mae llawer o bwyntiau i ni eu nodi o'r adroddiad hwn ac mae'n ein hatgoffa bod gan Lywodraeth Cymru waith mawr o'n blaenau o hyd o ran cynnydd ar dlodi plant, ac rydym ni wedi bod yn gwneud cynnydd ar gyflymder siomedig, yn anffodus. Ar lawer o fetrigau, a…

Thank you, Chair. Good morning. To what extent do you agree with the creation of the National Institute for Learning Welsh and the role that the Bill sets out for it? What sort of working relationship do you envisage having with the National Institute for…

Yes, and just to conclude this session, I just want to ask if there are any aspects of the Bill relating to education, or any part of the Bill, that we haven’t covered, which you think would be helpful for us to hear as a committee this morning.

It's not my own view, but just to play devil's advocate, a local authority could come back and say, 'We're under-resourced, we're underfunded, we're understaffed, we don't have the skills within our workforce to deliver this at a local and school level, and…

Diolch. Does the new framework for planning Welsh language education need addressing, in your view, considering the issue outlined earlier regarding the definition of Welsh language education?
9 Hydref 2024 , Children, Young People, and Education Committee
Bil y Gymraeg ac Addysg (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 10
Thank you very much. I'd like to cover Part 4 of the Bill, if I may. The Welsh Government wants to establish a clear line of accountability at a national, local and school level for the planning of Welsh language education. To what extent do you believe that…

Okay. No problem. Thank you very much. I'm conscious of time, but, just to finalise my questions, to what extent are you satisfied with the duration that the Bill sets for local authorities' WESPs, and do you think it strikes the right balance between a short…
