Minutes:
(a) The Assistant Education Quality Improvement Officer
guided Members through the handout circulated in which a summary of school
findings was set out, drawing attention to the fact that three primary schools
had been inspected by ESTYN during the 2016 Summer term, along with 6 primary
schools during the 2016 Autumn term 2016.
(b)
In response to a comment
made by a Member in relation to ESTYN terminology and the selection of
"adequate" in the Ysgol Maenofferen
self-evaluation, the GwE Challenge Adviser stated that the sentence "care,
assistance and leadership" was part of a broader field. Attention was
drawn to the fact that the words "effective, successful, robust,
beneficial" referred to "good" which was relevant to Religious
Education.
(c)
Reference was made to the
self-evaluations of the following schools
(i)
Ysgol
Bodfeurig
(ii)
Ysgol Borth-y-gest
(iii)
Ysgol
Bro Cynfal
(iv)
Ysgol

(v)
Ysgol

(vi)
Ysgol
Maenofferen
(vii)
Ysgol
Penybryn, Tywyn
(viii)
Ysgol
Rhiwlas
(ix)
Ysgol
Waunfawr
The GwE Challenge Adviser noted that the quality
of the self-evaluations had improved but that some weaknesses persisted because
schools had not scrutinised the guidances
in sufficient detail and that clearer guidances were
required.
In relation to Ysgol Maenofferen,
attention was drawn to pupils' levels at the end of Years 3, 4 and 5.
It was noted that the
Ysgol Cae Top self-evaluation was based on a
different methodology and it had recently received an excellent inspection.
Reference was made to the Ysgol Penybryn, Tywyn self-evaluation
in which a taster of the lessons was provided.
RESOLVED: To
accept and note the contents of the inspections and self-evaluations and, in
accordance with procedure, to congratulate the above schools for their efforts
in achieving the grades.
