Our students’ successes across a range of fields are exception- ally impressive and the staff and governors of the school are very proud of all they have achieved. On a whole-school level, we have enjoyed many highlights this year. Our pro- ductions of ‘Phantom of the Opera’ and ‘High School Musical’, our multitude of sporting achievements and the academic dedication of our students all com- bine to make Stanwell an exciting and focused learning environment. We feel proud to be part of such a successful school and I would like to take this op- portunity to thank our students, staff, parents, governors and friends in the wider community for their support this year.

  • Music Venue Trust Response to Music Industry in Wales Inquiry
    Music Venue Trust response to Music Industry in Wales Inquiry 1. About Music Venue Trust Music Venue Trust is a registered charity which acts to protect, secure and improve Grassroots Music Venues in the UK. 1 Music Venue Trust is the representative body of the Music Venues Alliance 2, a network of over 500 Grassroots Music Venues in the UK. A full list of the 34 Music Venues Alliance Wales members is provided at Annex A. 2. Grassroots Music Venues in 2019 A. A nationally and internationally accepted definition of a Grassroots Music Venue (GMV) is provided at Annex B. This definition is now in wide usage, including by the UK, Scottish and Welsh Parliaments. 3 GMVs exhibit a specific set of social, cultural and economic attributes which are of special importance to communities, artists, audiences, and to the wider music industry. Across sixty years, this sector has played a vital research and nurturing role in the development of the careers of a succession of UK musicians, for example The Beatles (The Cavern, Liverpool) through The Clash (100 Club, London), The Undertones (The Casbah, Derry), Duran Duran (Rum Runner, Birmingham), Housemartins (Adelphi, Hull), Radiohead (Jericho Tavern, Oxford), Idlewild (Subway, Edinburgh). All three of the UK’s highest grossing live music attractions in 2017 (Adele, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay) commenced their careers with extensive touring in this circuit. 4 In Wales, GMVs have played a central role in kickstarting the careers of The Manic Street Preachers (TJs, Newport), Supper Furry Animals (Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff), The Joy Formidable, (Central Station, Wrexham), Gruff Rhys (Neuadd Ogwen, Bangor), Funeral For A Friend (Hobo’s Bridgend), Skindred (Sin City, Swansea).

    Welcome to Cardiff – the Capital of Wales Cardiff is a unique capital that offers the full range of infrastructure expected of any modern capital while at the same time boasting an enviable quality of life. Cardiff’s residents believe the city is one of Europe’s best places to live (ranked as Europe's third best capital city to live) and work and it has been described as the ‘epitome of cool’ by the renowned Lonely Planet travel guide. Visitors and residents alike enjoy a varied social and cultural life as well as easy access to outstanding countryside and coastline. For a capital city, Cardiff is compact and manageable.

Together the universities boast 50,000 undergraduate students and over 16,000 postgraduate students. Cardiff is defined by its diversity and multiculturalism and has an ethnically diverse population due to its past trading connections, post-war immigration and the large numbers of foreign students who attend university in the city.
