Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 2:15 pm on 4 October 2017.
Thank you, Cabinet Secretary, and I really do welcome that much needed investment from Welsh Government. As I’m sure most of us agree, whilst non-teaching activities are critical to the running of a school, teachers’ time would be far better directed at teaching activities, and reducing unnecessary burdens is essential to achieving that. So, Cabinet Secretary, as I understand it, there will be a pilot run in 11 local authority areas in groups of primary schools. Do you have any details on whether any of those are in Mid and West Wales and do you have any idea when we can expect to see the first school where business managers are in post?
