Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:16 pm on 12 March 2019.
First Minister, it was a pleasure to join you on Thursday at the official opening of the brand-new £7.2 million Cwmaman Primary School in my constituency, just the latest in a series of new school buildings where my constituency has benefited from investment to the tune of over £100 million—more than any other constituency in Wales, I believe. And, as a former teacher, I know only too well the importance of providing these flexible and aspirational educational settings and the impact that that can have on our pupils' attainment. One thing that struck me particularly about the Cwmaman site was the way that the outdoor space was being used in order to maximise pupils' use of the outdoors and the very many benefits that that can bring in terms of attainment, well-being and performance all round. So, how else is the Welsh Government working to promote opportunities for outdoor learning?
