Ffederasiwn Carno, Glantwymyn a Llanbrynmair FFEDERASIWN CARNO, GLANTWYMYN A LLANBRYNMAIR GOVERNORS’ REPORT TO PARENTS YSGOL LLANBRYNMAIR A word from the Chairman 24th October 2018 Dear Parents/Guardians It is my pleasure to present the Annual Report to Parents of the Federation of Carno, Glantwymyn and Llanbrynmair on behalf of the governors and school staff again this year. With the support of the Welsh Government '21st Century Schools' grant, and the support of Carno Recreation Association a brand new school building is currently being built at the rear of the current school building at Carno, and the building work at Ysgol Glantwymyn has been finished, although the school is still awaiting for the outdoor area to be completed. The Education Authority are in early discussions with the Cylch Meithrin and Ysgol Llanbrynmair to discuss a possible small extension. These new developments will improve the children's teaching resources for future generations and protect education within our rural community. This was the aim of federating 4 years ago and we as a Governing Body are very glad to see the beginning of the building work. The three schools within the Federation were very active during the year between learning about the New Curriculum, sports events, the formation of a choir for a concert in the Tabernacl, visits to various shows and Educational workshops. As we reflect on the great successes last year we will look forward to continuing to develop the Federation. The collaboration and joint planning across the Federation sharing good practice contribute to raising standards across all three schools. I would like to thank the staff for their dedication and commitment to working together demonstrating flexibility when needed and to ensure that all pupils have access to a broad and balanced curriculum. We bid farewell to year 6 learners last year, with many having transferred to the Welsh medium stream at Ysgol Bro Hyddgen or to Llanidloes High School following successful transition arrangements with both high schools throughout the year. We also welcome the new pupils to the reception classes and hope they also enjoy being part of the Federation schools community. At the end of the summer term we welcomed Mrs. Lisa Morris, Mrs. Bethan Williams and Miss Claire Daniel back from their maternity leave. We also bid farewell to members of the Federation Governors such as Mr Iwan Morgan, the first chairman of the Carno, Glantwymyn and Llanbrynmair Schools Federation. Mr Morgan is retiring after being a member of the Federation Governing Body for 4 years and a dedicated member of Ysgol Llanbrynmair’s Governing Body for over 25 years and also Mrs Ann Owen and Mrs Gwenfair Davies’ term on the governing body has come to an end. I would like to thank them all for their time and commitment. My time on the Governing Body has also ended as Meia has started at Ysgol Bro Hyddgen in September. It has been a privilege for me to be chairman of the Federation for the past 2 years and I take pride in the way in which the communities have worked together to make a success of the Federation. I wish the Federation all the best for the future.

Parents will be informed of any elections for parent governors by the clerk of the Governing Body. Governing Body meetings The Governing Body meets every term to discuss school matters. Also there are many matters including the monitoring of standards and provision which are discussed regularly at meetings of the sub-committees. Governors have specific responsibilities for various aspects of school life and follow the Termly Monitoring Programme Members of the Governing Body also attended statutory and non-statutory training sessions. Changes to Parent/Governors Annual meetings Section 94 of the Schools Standards and Organisation (Wales) Act 2013 (the Act) makes important changes to the previous legislative arrangements regarding Annual Parents’/ Governors’ Meetings. It provides new arrangements where parents may request a meeting with a governing body. However, parents will need to satisfy four (4) statutory requirements to call a meeting, namely: (i) the parents of 10% of registered pupils, or the parents of 30 registered pupils (whichever is the lowest) must sign a petition requesting a meeting; (ii) the purpose of the meeting must be to discuss matters regarding the school; (iii) the maximum number of meetings parents may request in any school year is three (3); (iv) there must be enough school days left in the school year to allow for a meeting. Additionally: (a) the meetings must be held within a 25 day period; (b) the 25 day period begins on the day after receiving the petition, but does not include any days that are not school days; (c) if another meeting needs to be held due to a different petition, the 25 day period will not begin until the day after the other meeting has been held; (d) there must be enough days left in the school year to hold the meeting within the 25 day period; (e) meetings will be open to all parents of registered pupils at the school, the Headteacher and anyone else who is invited by the governing body; (f) notification of the meetings to parents must include the date, time and venue, as well as the matter or matters to be discussed For detailed information regarding statutory requirement, petitions and the process for holding a meeting, please follow this link: www.gov.wales/docs/dcells/publications/130503-statutory- guidance-parentsmeetings-en.p Travelling Allowances for Governors No travelling cost claims were received from Governors during 2017-18. Review of Policies The school regularly reviews and assesses the success of all its processes regularly. We regularly review policies and some are available on the school’s website or hard copies can be requested from the Clerk. The Governing Body has reviewed the statutory and non-statutory policies and documents. The statutory policies reviewed are: Child Protection Policy Preventing Extremism & Radicalisation Policy Safeguarding Policy Data Protection Policy Special Educational Needs Policy and Health and Saftey Policy Additional Learning Needs Curriculum Policy Strategic Equality Plan 2016 - 20 Data Protection Policy Pupil Disciplinary Policy (including bullying) Teacher’s Pay Policy 2017/18 Disciplinary Procedure for Teachers Equal Opportunities Policy Disciplinary Procedure for Support Staff Capacity and Procedure Performance Policy Disciplinary Procedure for Headteacher & Assistant for Schools (teaching staff and non-teaching Headteacher staff) Performance Management Charging for school activities policy School Prospectus The prospectus has been reviewed in September 2018 and small amendments were made to reflect current dates and statistics according to guidelines received from the Welsh Assembly. In accordance with statutory rules, the prospectus is given to the parents of pupils who start full time education at the school. A copy of the prospectus is available from the school office or on the school website. School Language Policy Ysgol Llanbrynmair is in a traditional Welsh area, and in accordance with Powys Education Authority’s policy, Welsh is the main teaching language of the school. Children are encouraged to speak Welsh both on the yard and during lessons with the exception of the English lessons (Years 3 – 6). Complaints Please discuss any concerns you may have with the Assistant Headteacher initially. You are also welcome to make an appointment to discuss any issues with the Headteacher. If issues are not resolved then parents should follow the guidelines outlined in the School’s Complaints Policy. This is available on the school website. Curriculum Statement The school aims to provide a balanced curriculum in accordance with the requirements of the National Curriculum in order to stimulate the educational, emotional and social development of each individual child. The practice and procedures of the Foundation Phase are in place. Differentiated strategies are used to develop the potential of every child to his/her full development. We aim to achieve the goals in a lively, intimate, interesting and creative way. The school policy documents can be viewed at the school in all subject areas; work plans in each subject area are also in place - in accordance with the guidelines of the National Curriculum. Pupils participate in sports as part of the curriculum and in extra-curricular activities.

The federation (Ffederaswn Carno, Glantwymyn a Llanbrynmair) share one headteacher and one governing body, ensuring that each of the three schools stay separately within the law by keeping their own individual identity. This arrangement builds successfully on the strengths within the schools. We would like to extend a warm welcome to your child to Ysgol Carno. Choosing the right school for your child is important. Parents want a good education for their children, but we also want them to be happy and feel secure. At Ysgol Carno we believe that we can offer all of these things. We are proud of the extensive, balanced and full education that we provide across the school. The National Curriculum is taught by experienced teachers. In addition to the development of linguistic, mathematical, scientific and technological skills, your child will develop confidence, self support, will learn to make decisions and develop the ability to state feelings and ideas. We also emphasise the development of the child’s social skills and lead them to form a relationship with other children and adults, and to be sensitive to the feelings and the needs of other people. The teachers will ensure that the children move on at their own pace in order that they may reach their full potential.

I am sincerely grateful to the efforts of everyone who has helped contribute to the making of this Plan which is so important for the future of Powys. Importantly, the Plan sets out a clear and strong strategy for meeting the future needs of the county’s communities over the next decade. By focussing development on our market towns and largest villages, it provides the direction and certainty to support investment and enable economic opportunities to be seized, to grow and support viable service centres and for housing development to accommodate our growing and changing household needs. At the same time the Plan provides the protection for our outstanding and important natural, built and cultural environments that make Powys such an attractive and special place in which to live, work, visit and enjoy. Our efforts along with all our partners must now shift to delivering the Plan for the benefit of our communities. Councillor Martin Weale Portfolio Holder for Economy and Planning

  • 'IARRIAGES Introduction This Volume of 'Stray' Marriages Is Published with the Hope That It Will Prove
    S T R A Y S Volume One: !'IARRIAGES Introduction This volume of 'stray' marriages is published with the hope that it will prove of some value as an additional source for the familv historian. For economic reasons, the 9rooms' names only are listed. Often people married many miles from their own parishes and sometimes also away from the parish of the spouse. Tracking down such a 'stray marriage' can involve fruitless and dishearteninq searches and may halt progress for many years. - Included here are 'strays', who were married in another parish within the county of Powys, or in another county. There are also a few non-Powys 'strays' from adjoining counties, particularly some which may be connected with Powys families. For those researchers puzzled and confused by the thought of dealing with patronymics, when looking for their Welsh ancestors, a few are to be found here and are ' indicated by an asterisk. A simple study of these few examples may help in a search for others, although it must be said, that this is not so easy when the father's name is not given. I would like to thank all those members who have helped in anyway with the compilation of this booklet. A second collection is already in progress; please· send any contributions to me.
