PURPOSE OF THE REPORT The purpose of this report is to provide Members with an analysis of school exclusion performance for the academic year 2018/19 and a comparison of performance over the last five years where appropriate. 2. RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that Members: 2.1 Scrutinise and comment on the information contained within this report. 2.2 Consider whether they wish to scrutinise in greater depth any matters contained in the report. 3. BACKGROUND TO THE REPORT 3.1 Schools must have policies and procedures in place that promote good behaviour and prevent poor behaviour. A school’s behaviour and attendance policy should be seen as an integral part of its curriculum, as all schools teach values as well as skills and knowledge. The policy must be based on clear values such as respect, fairness and inclusion, and reflect the school’s overall aims and its social, moral and religious education programmes. 3.2 These values should be the basis for the principles underlying the school’s behaviour and attendance policy. The principles should include promoting self-discipline and respect for others, and the importance of listening to all members of the school community, including the learners. They should be relevant to every member of the school community, including staff, governors and parents/carers.

    2020 Flood Survey Report

    1 "WE HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN ABOUT." 2020 FLOOD SURVEY REPORT Commissioned by Leanne Wood MS and Rhondda Cynon Taf Plaid Cymru Councillors regarding flooding in Rhondda Cynon Taf in 2020 Written by C. AMOSS. 2 3 Contents 04 Statement by Leanne Wood MS 05 Introduction 06 Executive Summary 08 Pontypridd Constituency Flooding 16 Rhondda Constituency Flooding 30 Cynon Valley Constituency Flooding 34 Impact and After Effects : Conclusion 37 Recommendations 38 Appendix 4 Statement by Leanne Wood MS In February many people’s lives were turned upside down when Storm Dennis resulted in water entering their homes and businesses. Some people had been flooded before and some were flooded after that day in February, but more havoc was wreaked during that one weather event than had ever been seen in our communities. Scientists have been warning for years that the impacts of the climate crisis will be felt by more people as time goes on. As well as working to combat the causes of the climate crisis, governments – both local and national – have a duty to keep people safe and do whatever is possible to prevent people from being flooded. They should also provide support and do everything in their power to protect people and property in the future. This report analyses the survey responses of those who were flooded in Rhondda Cynon Taf and makes recommendations for action. It also shows the human cost of these floods and the toll it takes on the physical and mental health of many affected – something that has been noticeably absent from the documents produced by the authorities to date.

    RHONDDA CYNON TAF COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCIL CABINET 13 FEBRUARY 2020 CONSIDERATION FOR FAMILY ENGAGEMENT OFFICER ROLES REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION AND INCLUSION SERVICES IN DISCUSSIONS WITH THE CABINET MEMBER FOR EDUCATION AND INCLUSION SERVICES (COUNCILLOR MRS J ROSSER) Author: DANIEL WILLIAMS, HEAD OF ATTENDANCE AND WELLBEING SERVICE (Tel: 01443 744298) 1. PURPOSE OF THE REPORT The purpose of this briefing is to consider the funding and consequent employment of Family Engagement Officers in six secondary/through schools to help tackle school attendance. 2. RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that Members: 2.1 Note the information contained in the report. 2.2 Determine whether to agree to the funding and consequent employment of Family Engagement Officers in six secondary/through schools to help improve attendance. 3. REASONS FOR THE RECOMMENDATIONS 3.1 In the academic year 2018/19, secondary school attendance (including special schools) in RCT declined 0.1% from the previous year to 92.8%. This is the lowest point since the 2012/13 academic year and placed RCT 22nd in the All Wales attendance table. 3.2 As a result of declining figures in recent years, attendance has been made an RCT priority. To ensure that the most vulnerable pupils are supported the Education and Inclusion Services Directorate has identified a model of best practice within our Primary Schools that we believe would be beneficial to supporting attendance as well as forming and enhancing relationships with parents in our lowest performing settings. This model is based around the role of Family Engagement Officers. 4. BACKGROUND 4.1 Family Engagement Officers provide an important link between the school, parents/carers and pupils and have been shown to provide an effective and valued role.
