The importance of the visibility of the forward pipeline of work was emphasised in the CEW ‘No Turning Back’ report in 2010 and in its 2015 review. Much has been achieved since the CEW pilot exercise began in autumn 2011, with regular updates now produced of :- the Wales Infrastructure Investment Plan (WIIP) pipeline (WG) the Welsh local authorities’ 4-year capital programme (CEW) a sector-based programme for the WIIP local authority projects (CEW) a Wales extract of the UK pipeline ( non-devolved ) (CEW) We continue to liaise with industry representatives as to how to improve the visibility of the future pipeline of work. The responses from the industry have overwhelmingly supported the continuation and development of the programme.

  • Hawthorn Highlights
    HAWTHORN HIGHLIGHTS ISSUE 07 July 2015 www.hawthornhighschool.co.uk Highlights in this edition this issue Transition Bugsy Malone July 2015 gave the Performing Arts Faculty the opportunity to proudly present a joint cluster production of Bugsy Malone. Year 11 Prom Splurge guns at the ready the Hawthorn smash hit stage version of Alan Parker's world famous musical was not to be missed. A mobster named Roxy Robinson is "splurged" by members of a gang, using rapid-fire custard-shooting "splurge guns". Once splurged, a kid is "all washed up... finished". Speakeasy boss Fat Sam introduces himself and Bugsy Malone, a boxing promoter with no money ("Bugsy Malone"). At Fat Sam's speakeasy, there is much dancing and singing ("Fat Sam's Grand Slam"). Fat Sam is worried that his rival Dandy Dan will try to take control of the speakeasy. Blousey Brown, an aspiring singer, has come for an audition, but Sam is too distracted to see her. Bugsy meets Blousey when he trips over her luggage. He is smitten and flirts with her. Fat Sam's is raided by Dandy Dan's men, who shoot up the place. Dandy Dan's men continue to attack Fat Sam's empire, eventually taking away rackets and splurging members of Fat Sam's gang. Fat Sam sends all his available men to see if they can track down the guns. They are trapped at a laundry and all are Hawthorn’s got Talent splurged by Dandy Dan's gang. Hawthorn’s Got Talent A Level Art & Design Exhibition The Art Department showcased the range of outstanding talent that we have at Hawthorn High School in it’s recent A Level Art Exhibition.

    FAIRWATER HIGH SCHOOL YSGOL UWCHRADD FAIRWATER GOVERNORS’ ANNUAL REPORT ADRODDIAD BLYNYDDOL Y LLYWODRAETHWYR SEPTEMBER 2013– JULY 2014 MEDI 2013– GORFFENNAF 2014 CHAIRPERSON: CADEIRYDD: Mrs R Seabourne, Fairwater High School, Mr D McChrystal, Ty Gwyn Way, Fairwater, Cwmbran, NP44 4YZ Interim Chief Education Officer, Tel No: 01633 643950 Torfaen County Borough Council, Civic Centre, Pontypool, NP4 6YB 1 Tel No: 01495 762200 ‘Evolving into Excellence’ 2014 - 2015 Fairwater High School has transformed into a high achieving, academic school. There have been phenomenal improvements across all areas of the school. We now have established a culture of high expectations, challenging targets and ambitious goals for every pupil. The outcome of these improvements is to give our pupils the best skills and qualifications they can possibly achieve to improve their life chances. These outstanding results mean that the school is in a very good position when compared with schools in Torfaen, as well as our ‘Family’ of schools (schools identified as ‘similar’ from across Wales). This has been achieved by all stakeholders i.e. pupils, parents / carers, staff and governors being prepared to raise their expectations and drive standards up. Significant improvement has been demonstrated in all areas i.e. GCSE and A Level results, Attendance and Punctuality, Behaviour and Teaching and Learning. Achievements in the classroom are matched by success in a very wide range of other areas. Pupils have the opportunity to participate in Music and Drama, with two major School Productions annually, and choral and orchestral performances. Team activities are a strength in all major sports with clubs at lunchtime, after school and before school encouraging still wider participation.

  • First Minister Celebrates Ponty School's Success
    Monthly update report February 2014 FIRST MINISTER CELEBRATES PONTY SCHOOL’S SUCCESS It was great to see the First Minister placing such an emphasis on the PONT project, with a special mention for pupils from Pontypridd High School. The Tories meanwhile would scrap support for the scheme. Find out why I think they’re wrong on Page 2. BEDROOM TAX Page 2 I’m continuing to back the campaign to get rid of this hated tax on some of the poorest people in our communities. FOOD HYGEINE SCORES Page 3 Food hygiene scores across Pontypridd and Llantrisant have im- proved dramatically as a result of the introduction of the Food Hygiene Rating (Wales) Act 2013. APPRENTICES Page 3 I’ve highlighted the outstanding success of Pontypridd apprentices at First minister’s questions. UKRAINE Page 4 I visited Ukraine as part of an EU Committee of the Regions Delegation. The crisis there continues to deepen. Contact details on back page Successful Challenge To the Hated Bedroom Tax The UK government has now confirmed that tenants who have lived in the same property since the beginning of 1996 and have been in continuous receipt of housing benefit are exempt from the Bedroom Tax, this also applies to those who have inherited a tenancy on the same basis. I welcome this successful legal chal- lenge, but the Tory/Lib Dem government is intent on continuing to attack the poorest mem- bers of society. It is a grossly unfair tax. Despite the reprieve for some the Tory / Lib Dem government is however likely to re-write the legislation.
