  • 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.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 now brings the franchise to its powerful final chapter in which Katniss Everdeen [Jennifer Lawrence] realizes the stakes are no longer just for survival – they are for the future. With the nation of Panem in a full scale war, Katniss confronts President Snow [Donald Sutherland] in the final showdown. Teamed with a group of her closest friends – including Gale [Liam Hemsworth], Finnick [Sam Claflin] and Peeta [Josh Hutcherson] – Katniss goes off on a mission with the unit from District 13 as they risk their lives to liberate the citizens of Panem, and stage an assassination attempt on President Snow who has become increasingly obsessed with destroying her. The mortal traps, enemies, and moral choices that await Katniss will challenge her more than any arena she faced in The Hunger Games.
