See the relevant contact details at the end of this statutory consultation paper. We look forward to receiving your views. Sincerely, Garem Jackson Head of Education [3] 1. Introduction Gwynedd Council is considering re-organising schools within Y Berwyn catchment area, the centre of which is the town of Bala in Meirionnydd. The catchment has six schools: Ysgol Bro Tegid, Ysgol Beuno Sant and Ysgol y Berwyn in Y Bala; Ysgol OM Edwards, Ysgol Bro Tryweryn and Ysgol Ffridd y Llyn in the surrounding rural area. Ysgol y Berwyn is the secondary school for the catchment; all the other schools are primary schools. The Council has considered a number of possible options in considering the reorganisation of schools within the Berwyn catchment area and has previously approved, and consequently withdrawn a proposal to establish a 3-19 Learning Campus, Welsh Medium, Voluntary Controlled (VC, Church in Wales). This document sets out the consultation process, the factors which the Council considers to be relevant and the decision making process. The proposal is to establish a Learning Campus for pupils aged 3-19 on the present site of Ysgol y Berwyn, Y Bala. 1.1 The proposal subject to this statutory consultation Ysgol Bro Tegid and Ysgol Beuno Sant will close, and the educational provision provided by both schools will be provided at the 3-19 Learning Campus. Ysgol y Berwyn will also close, and the education for pupils of secondary school age will be provided at the Learning Campus. The Learning Campus will be located on the current site of Ysgol y Berwyn. Close Close Close Ysgol Bro Tegid Ysgol Beuno Sant Ysgol y Berwyn 3-19 Learning Campus This proposal relates to the schools in the town of Bala only. 1.2 The vision for the catchment area This statutory consultation only relates to schools in the town of Bala. However, the re-organisation taking place in Bala forms part of Gwynedd Council’s long-term vision for the catchment. [4] The vision seeks to ensure that the three rural schools, Ysgol OM Edwards, Ysgol Bro Tryweryn and Ysgol Ffridd y Llyn also benefit from the proposed investment in Bala, Gwynedd Council therefore intends to establish a joint-committee between the rural schools and the Learning Campus. The proposal to establish a federation between two of the rural schools (Ysgol Bro Tryweryn and Ysgol Ffridd y Llyn) is the subject of a separate consultation, of which the relevant consultees have previously been provided an opportunity to submit their opinions on relating to the proposal during the statutory consultation which was held in June 2017. The federation of Ysgol Bro Tryweryn and Ysgol Ffridd y Llyn, namely ‘Ffederasiwn Cysgod y Foel’ came into effect on 30 October 2017. The vision for the catchment can be seen below. Close Close Close Ysgol Bro Tegid Ysgol Beuno Sant Ysgol y Berwyn Ysgol Ysgol Ysgol OM Bro Tryweryn Ffridd y Llyn Edwards 3-19 Learning Campus Federation Joint Committee 2. The Consultation This consultation will be held between 22 November 2017 and 10 January 2018. The consultation relates to the schools in Bala only, and therefore responses to this consultation should comment on the proposal as described in paragraph 1.1 above. The consultation document will be distributed, in accordance with the Welsh Government School Organisation Code, to the following consultees prior to the statutory consultation period: Requirements of the Organisation Code 006/2013 Distributed to… Retaining authority or proposed retaining authority of any Gwynedd Council is presenting the proposal school which the proposals are likely to affect Any other local authority which the proposals are likely to affect Powys, Denbigh, Conwy and Anglesey Councils – including, in the case of designated LEA provision, any authority which places or is likely to place pupils on statement within it [5] Church in Wales Diocesan Authority and the Catholic Church for Church in Wales Bangor Diocesan Authority the area where any school likely to be affected by the proposal Church in Wales St. Asaph Diocesan Authority is located Any other relevant religious body for any school which the Catholic Diocesan Authority proposal is likely to affect The governing body of any school which is the subject of Governing Bodies of Ysgol Beuno Sant, Bro Tegid, Bro proposals and the governing bodies of other schools which the Tryweryn, Ffridd y Llyn, OM Edwards, Ysgol y Berwyn proposal is likely to affect, including those which could receive any pupils who have been displaced Parents (and future parents, where possible), carers and Parents, carers, guardians, and the staff of Ysgol guardians, and the staff of those schools Beuno Sant, Bro Tegid, Bro Tryweryn, Ffridd y Llyn, OM Edwards, Ysgol y Berwyn Welsh Ministers Carwyn Jones AM , Jeremy Miles AM, Mark Drakeford AM, Vaughn Gething AM, Lesley Griffiths AM, Ken Skates AM, Kirsty Williams AM, Alun Davies AM, Julie James AM Assembly Members (AMs) and members of Parliament (MPs) AM for Dwyfor-Meirionnydd Constituency representing areas served by any school which is the subject of Dafydd Elis-Thomas AM proposals Regional AMs for Mid and West Wales Neil Hamilton AM Eluned Morgan AM Simon Thomas AM Joyce Watson AM MP for Dwyfor-Meirionnydd Constituency Liz Saville Roberts MP Estyn Anne Keane – Education and Training in Wales Chief Inspector Teachers’ Unions and relevant staff unions representing schools Representatives of ASCL, ATL, UCAC, GMB, NUT, and other staff in any school which is the subject of proposals NAHT, UNSAIN, NASUWT The relevant Regional Education Consortium Arwyn Thomas – Chief Officer GwE Anwen Williams – North Wales Consortium Co-

  • AN EXAMINATION of the CELWYDD GOLAU Presented For
    AN EXAMINATION OF THE CELWYDD GOLAU Presented for fulfillment of the MPhil in Welsh in 2015 Bradford Marr McMullen i Summary: Celwydd golau, or “light lie”, is the Welsh term for the tall tale. Tall tales, a genre of folklore characterized by their exaggerated qualities, are common internationally, although scholarship on the genre has focused on the American examples. The goal of this study is to provide an overview of the genre as it exists in the Welsh folk tradition, making use of the folklore archive at St. Fagans National History Museum. The first chapter of this study is a review of existing literature on the tall tale, as well as an examination of the American tall tale tradition and the history of Welsh folklore collecting. The second chapter examines celwydd golau about animals found in the archive at St. Fagans National History Museum, while the third chapter examines celwydd golau about linguistic mistakes in Welsh and English. The fourth chapter concludes the study by summarizing the previous chapters and offering any final thoughts as well as potential further avenues of study. There are also four appendices to this study. Appendix A offers summaries of the celwydd golau about animals, while Appendix B offers summaries of the celwydd golau about linguistic mistakes. Appendix C offers some brief biographical data about several of the tellers mentioned multiple times, as well as a list of celwydd golau associated with them. Appendix D consists of a series of maps, documenting the locations from which each example was collected.

This paper will look specifically at Developing the Settlement Strategy . It will explain the background which will help to identify the issues, objectives and options for the Deposit Plan. The Deposit Plan is the second statutory stage in the preparation of the Joint Local Development Plan (JLDP). The JLDP shapes the future growth of communities in the Joint Local Development Plan Area and will set out the policies and land allocations against which planning applications will be assessed. The Deposit Plan will be submitted to the Welsh Government, which will appoint an independent inspector to assess the soundness of the Plan in the Examination in Public. If the inspector considers the Plan to be sound it will be recommended for adoption. When adopted the JLDP will supersede the Gwynedd Unitary Development Plan (2009) for the Gwynedd Local Planning Authority Area and the Gwynedd Structure Plan (1993) and Ynys Môn Local Plan (1996) for the Ynys Môn Local Planning Authority. This topic paper can be read in isolation or in conjunction with the other Topic Papers and Background Papers that have been prepared to give a full picture the Joint Local Development Plan Area. This is version 3 of the topic paper and it provides an update on version 2 that was produced with the Deposit Plan.
