@SamRowlands_
Conservative Member of the Senedd for Fflint Wrecsam.
Promoted by Sam Rowlands of North Wales Business Park, Abergele LL22 8LJ.
I raised concerns in the Senedd about safeguarding in schools and the growing impact of cyberbullying and online harm on children. There is a need for a Wales-wide approach to restricting smartphones in schools to better protect pupils and create a better environment for learning

Walesโ new GCSE English course has only just started, and serious concerns are already being raised. That is not fair on pupils, teachers or schools. They deserve a curriculum that works from the start. - Sam Rowlands MS repostedDiolch to @SamRowlands_ @WelshConservย for coming to have an insightful discussionย with Qualifications Wales about the importance of tertiary education and non-degree qualifications.
- It was a pleasure to meet with parents @ysgsaltneyferry . Many feel Flintshire Council isn't listening, and anxiety remains high over the school's future impact on pupils and staff. Itโs vital that parents' voices are properly heard before any final decisions are made.

- School attendance is moving in the wrong direction. ย 23.4% of pupils have now reached the persistent absence threshold, including nearly half of all pupils eligible for free school meals. ย Plaid must get a grip, or more of our pupil will be left behind. #education #wales

- Sam Rowlands MS repostedThe UK Supreme Court has ruled on the meaning of sex under the Equality Act. The EHRC has issued new guidance for schools. In Wales, parents and teachers still lack clarity. @SamRowlands_ has asked the Welsh Government if it will implement the guidance in schools.
00:00 - Parents, teachers and pupils deserve absolute clarity from the Welsh Government. That is why I have written to the Cabinet Secretary for Education today,demanding confirmation on whether the new Equality & Human Rights Commission guidance will be rolled out in schools in Wales
