  • Appendix 5 Summary of Pupil Responses and Appraisal of Views Expressed 1. Officers Met with Pupils from the Following Welsh-Medium Primary and Secondary Schools
    Appendix 5 Summary of pupil responses and appraisal of views expressed 1. Officers met with pupils from the following Welsh-medium primary and secondary schools: Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Hamadryad Ysgol Mynydd Bychan Ysgol Gymraeg Nant Caerau Ysgol Gymraeg Pwll Coch Ysgol Gymraeg Treganna Ysgol Glan Morfa Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Bro Edern Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Plasmawr 2. Full notes of the meetings can be seen at Appendix 4. Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Hamadryad 3. The points raised by the pupils of Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Hamadryad included the following: Catchments were good because you would know where you could go to school It was fair for every school to have its own catchment Children should be able to go to their local school Children should be able to walk or bike to school. The majority of the pupils said they came to school by bike or walking and that they enjoyed this very much. Not all the children lived in the school proposed school catchment for Hamadryad and they were worried that they would have to leave their school. They were reassured that this wouldn’t happen and that no one would have to leave their school. They were concerned for Ysgol Gymraeg Pwll Coch and Ysgol Mynydd Bychan as these schools had lost part of their catchments. Appraisal of views expressed 4. The Council welcomes the views of pupils from Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Hamadryad. 5. The Council is committed to providing local schools for local children where possible. In instances where children who live outside of the proposed catchment area for Ysgol Hamadryad were admitted to the school prior to the establishment of a catchment area, any younger siblings would be given priority for admission.

  • Appendix 6 Summary of the Responses Received and Appraisal of Views Expressed 1
    Appendix 6 Summary of the responses received and appraisal of views expressed 1. The points of view received as part of the consultation are set out in italics below and have been grouped according to the points raised where appropriate. 2. The Council’s response to each point can be seen underneath, under the heading “Appraisal of views expressed.” Local Member Response 3. A joint response was received from the Canton Councillors (Cllr Stephen Cunnah, Cllr Susan Elsmore and Cllr Ramesh Patel) which included the following points: We agree with the consultation’s initial principle that there is a need for a workable proposal to be taken forward as soon as possible. A catchment must be created for the new Ysgol Gymraeg Hamadryad (Hamadryad) in order to provide a level of certainty for this school and its neighbouring schools. As a result of the founding of Hamadryad and the impending creation of its catchment, we agree also that changes must be made to balance the catchment areas of those nearby Welsh-medium primary schools. For those families with only-children or eldest siblings who will be new to schooling from 2021 onwards, or those who are moving into the area with school-age children, since we consider both Treganna and Pwll Coch to be great schools, for these families we do not consider that it will make a detrimental difference where the catchment boundary falls within our ward. Protection for all residents through changes to oversubscription criteria For those families who already have older children attending Welsh-medium schools, our first priority is for all Canton residents to have protection from unnecessary inconvenience and anxiety over their children’s expected pathway through Cardiff’s schools.

    Appendix A THIS REPORT MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY THE REPORT AUTHORISATION FORM 4.C.214 CITY OF CARDIFF COUNCIL CYNGOR DINAS CAERDYDD CABINET MEETING: 15 MARCH 2018 SCHOOL ADMISSION ARRANGEMENTS 2019/20 REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION AGENDA ITEM: PORTFOLIO: EDUCATON (COUNCILLOR SARAH MERRY) Reason for this Report 1. In accordance with Section 89 of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 and the Education (Determination of Admission Arrangements) (Wales) Regulations 2006, Admission Authorities are required to review their School Admission Arrangements annually. 2. This report is to inform the Cabinet of responses received following public consultation on the Council’s School Admission Arrangements 2019/20. Background 3. In order to comply with the legislation above, School Admission Arrangements for implementation in the 2019/20 academic year (i.e. from September 2019) must be determined on or before 15th April 2018. 4. The Education (Determination of Admission Arrangements) (Wales) Regulations 2006 and the School Admissions Code set out the procedure which admission authorities should follow when determining their admission arrangements, including that proper consultation must be carried out and that the arrangements should be determined by 15th April in the school year beginning two years before the school year which the arrangements will be for. 5. The Cabinet at its meeting of 16 March 2017 considered a report on School Admissions Arrangements for 2018/2019 which outlined the need to assess the suitability of the Council’s system for allocating school places at a time when surplus places in secondary schools are reducing, and an increasing number of schools are oversubscribed, as the increased pupil population promotes to secondary education.
