Framework for Welsh

 

(i) Do you work in or support the delivery of education? *

 

(ii) If yes, what is your organisation? (If no continue to iv below)

 

(iii) What is your primary role?

 

(iv) If you do not work in or support the delivery of education, in what capacity would you like to provide feedback?

 

(v) Are you providing feedback on behalf of an organisation or group?

 

(vi) If 'yes' please specify:

 

Question 1 – Does the information provided in this framework about experiences, knowledge and skills offer teachers guidance to help plan for learners’ progression in Welsh?

 

Question 2 – Is there something missing that should be included in the experiences, knowledge and skills?

 

Question 3 – Will the information about language competencies provided in this framework support teachers to plan for learners’ progression in Welsh?

 

Question 4 – The draft framework sets out the descriptions of learning strand by strand. Do you think including an additional sentence above descriptions of learning to summarise the focus of each strand of progression would be helpful to teachers? (An example taken from the framework is provided below, with the suggested additional sentence: ‘This strand describes progression in vocabulary development’.)

 

Question 5 – What additional supporting materials do you think teachers will need in order to use the Curriculum for Wales and this framework effectively to support learners’ progression in Welsh?

 

Question 6 – What additional professional learning opportunities do you think teachers will need in order to use the Curriculum for Wales and this framework effectively to support learners’ progression in Welsh?

 

Question 7 – We would like to know your views on the effects that the framework for Welsh in English-medium schools, settings and streams would have on the Welsh language, specifically on opportunities for people to use Welsh and on treating the Welsh language no less favourably than English.

What effects do you think there would be? How could positive effects be increased, or negative effects be mitigated?
