FILLING THE GAPS: THE IRON AGE IN CARDIFF AND THE VALE OF GLAMORGAN Abstract Over the last 20 years interpretive approaches within Iron Age studies in Britain have moved from the national to the regional. This was an important development which challenged the notion that a unified, British, Iron Age ever existed. However, whilst this approach has allowed regional histories to be told in their own right there has been far too much focus on ‘key’ areas such as Wessex and Yorkshire.

    Price £2.50 Number 1 October 2003 A warm welcome to the Forum’s first Newsletter and a big thank you to all of the contributers who have produced articles for this issue. Thanks also to Lin Norton for producing the cover heading. As Editor, producing this Newsletter has been very much a steep learning curve, particularly getting to grips with ‘new technology’ so if there are any glitches in what you actually receive please bear with me. We had intended producing this Newsletter in two formats, electronic and hard copy, in order to keep the costs down and speed up distribution. However, due to the size of the finished copy it is probably too large to send to most of you as an e-mail attachment so, for the time being, we are producing it in hard copy format. Hopefully, in due course, we will be able overcome this problem so that those of you able to receive electronic communications can receive it in glorious technicolor. This first issue covers a wide range of topics from planning issues to individual building stones as well as Forum business, short notes and the first field meeting report. Jonathan Adams’ article on Cardiff’s Millennium Centre is a fore-taster for the field trip on 29th November the details of which, along with those of all of the Forum’s other meetings until the end of 2004 are to be found elsewhere in the Newsletter. Below is a report and reminder from Tim Palmer for all those of you who have yet to pay your first subscriptions.

  • Cardiff Council Cyngor Caerdydd
    CARDIFF COUNCIL CYNGOR CAERDYDD COUNCIL: 31 JANUARY 2013 REPORT OF CHIEF LEGAL & DEMOCRATIC SERVICES OFFICER & MONITORING OFFICER AGENDA ITEM: APPOINTMENT OF LOCAL AUTHORITY, PARENT AND STAFF SCHOOL GOVERNORS TO NEW TEMPORARY GOVERNING BODY Reason for this Report 1. To appoint Local Authority, Parent and Staff School Governors to a new temporary governing body for the New School in the East of Cardiff. Background 2. The New Maintained Schools (Wales) Regulations 2005 state that where any proposals to establish a maintained school have been published under any enactment, the local authority may make arrangements to appoint Governors to Temporary Governing Bodies under Section 34 of the 2002 Act in anticipation of the approval of the proposals or in anticipation of a determination by the authority that the proposals should be implemented. The Council’s Cabinet at its meeting of 6th December 2012, has accepted a number of recommendations on improving standards in education in the East of Cardiff, including the following: • To create a single high school in the East. This is following an earlier consultation undertaken in January 2012 and recommends publishing a Statutory Notice to formally close Llanrumney and Rumney High Schools from August 2014 to create one single school. Subject to the outcome of the Statutory Notice, the new school would begin its life on the existing Rumney site until brand new premises can be opened in 2016. A further consultation with the community will be held in the New Year to decide where the new school should be built. • A temporary governing body for the proposed replacement school to be established that would secure the appointment of a Headteacher for the new school to take up post from September 2013.
