    DISCUSSION:

     

    The report on arrangements and plans regarding the two main work streams in the Welsh language business plan this year was presented - arrangements for the Cluster Plans and 'Ein Llais Ni' Oracy Project.

     

    There was discussion on the first work stream, namely the cluster plans, noting the objectives: to promote cluster meetings, develop Welsh language skills and encourage collaboration between the Primary and Secondary sectors. It was noted there will be three Advisers in each area, who will be working closely with the Local Authorities to ensure support.

     

    In terms of the second work stream, the 'Ein Llais Ni' Project, it was explained the project is funded following an application to Welsh Government, with the aim of promoting Welsh oracy and refining learners' speaking skills. 

     

    It was noted the project has been designed in close collaboration with Professor Enlli Thomas, Bangor University and there will be a Research Officer for the project. The planning process has taken place, and schools have been informed.  It was added that a steering group is about to be established to oversee the project and report back to Welsh Government. 

     

    There will be a launch conference on 20 October, to inspire schools and share strategies.

     

    Comments arising from the discussion:

    -          Authorities are busy planning their WESP reports; all support to promote the Welsh language is appreciated.

    -          It was asked whether it is intended to report back in the future on the impact of activities undertaken to promote the Welsh language in our schools.

    -          Thanks were expressed for the timely report in the wake of a deterioration in the use of the language in schools due to lockdown, and this in Welsh language strongholds.

     

    Response of GwE Managing Director to the comments:

    -          There are ongoing discussions on the possible usefulness of presenting a report to the Joint Committee for members to see the existing work streams to promote the Welsh language in schools.
