-More than 80 11-year-olds -started at Maes Garmon in September. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
-It was a huge change for them. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:21 | |
-I used to be the eldest at school... | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |

-I found it quite difficult. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
-It wasn't easy coming to school -during the first week. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:57 | |
-Every time I got lost... | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
-..I tried to find a teacher -to point me in the right direction. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:04 | |
-It was difficult. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
-It was nerve-wracking, in a way... | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
-..but it's good to know... | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
-..that everyone's -going through the same thing. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
-Maes Garmon's headteacher since 2010 -is Bronwen Hughes. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:19 | |

-..from primary to secondary... | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
-..is as smooth as possible. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |

-More than anything, -we try to make sure they're happy. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |

-We take the pupils of Years 6 and 7 -to Llangrannog for a week. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:07 | |
-It ensures that come September, -there'll be familiar faces. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
-Year 6 children worry that -they're not going to know anyone. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:15 | |
-Many start school, knowing -children older than themselves... | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
-..and also their registration tutor. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
-Many of you have had -an interesting journey... | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
-..since September. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |

-You've been fantastic this week. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
-Please continue -with the same positive attitude. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:48 | |
-I'm afraid to ask this. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
-Does anyone have any questions? | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
-I have a question to ask. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
-Do you have a date -for the disco, Tomos? | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |

-I'm looking forward to seeing you -dancing together on Friday night! | 0:04:06 | 0:04:11 | |
-It's the small things that worry -them, such as catching the bus... | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
-..in the right place, -moving classrooms... | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
-..and walking down the corridors -with much older pupils. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
-The refectory bothers them. -They have to queue for food. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:39 | |
-The main concern is friends. They -don't want to be lonely at school. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:44 | |
-They want to be part -of a friendship group. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
-As head of year, -their happiness is paramount. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
-Good morning. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
-I want you to write a letter... | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
-..to someone -who'll be very special to you.. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
-..in four or five years' time. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
-You, yourselves. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
-Iwan Hughes, head of English, -had the idea... | 0:05:04 | 0:05:07 | |
-..of getting his registration class -to write a letter to themselves. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:12 | |
-They'll be kept in a time capsule... | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
-..to be opened in five years' time. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
-Mr Owen Thomas -has written a letter... | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |

-The headteacher will write one too. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:29 | |
-Focus on what you want to say. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
-I'm writing sentences about what -I'm doing now, my favourite foods... | 0:05:32 | 0:05:37 | |
-..my favourite football team -and which team I play for... | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
-..to see if that's -going to change when I'm older... | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
-..or if it stays the same. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
-Matthew from Queensferry feels -at home in his new school by now... | 0:05:48 | 0:05:52 | |
-..but the first few weeks -were far from easy. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:56 | |
-I was feeling ill every morning. -I was sick. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
-I was nervous and excited... | 0:05:59 | 0:06:03 | |
-..and when I'm excited -I always feel sick. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
-After being sick, -I'd go to my lessons and enjoy them. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
-I was never sent home. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
-I was fine, I could play. -Everything was OK afterwards. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:17 | |
-I think -I know my way around the school. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
-The teachers know who I am. -I'm very talkative. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:26 | |
-At Ysgol Croes Atti, -I was a bit disruptive... | 0:06:26 | 0:06:29 | |
-..but I'm not in this school. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
-If I settle down really well, -the better it'll be for me. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:36 | |
-I want a group photo now. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
-I've seen more attractive classes, -but that can't he helped! | 0:06:40 | 0:06:46 | |
-After three. One, two, three. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
-OK. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
-Silly faces. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
-I think I'm a different person now. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
-I think I'm a bit more responsible, -even though I'm a bit cheekier. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:02 | |
-I was going to open my envelope -and put chewing gum inside. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
-One, two, three. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:08 | |
-Another new pupil at Maes Garmon -is Ged from Connah's Quay. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:21 | |
-10 minutes to describe... | 0:07:23 | 0:07:25 | |
-His sister, Emily, is a year older. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:28 | |
-She's been instrumental -in helping him settle in. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:32 | |
-Ged and Emily are an exceptionally -close brother and sister. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:39 | |
-They're very different characters. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
-Emily's a quiet child -while Ged's a character. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
-He's a typical boy, he's lively. -He's a very likeable character. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:50 | |
-On my first day at Maes Garmon... | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
-..I walked in -and thought it was massive. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
-We only had one teacher -at Croes Atti... | 0:07:59 | 0:08:03 | |
-..and now we've got lots more... | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
-..and much more homework. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
-What can you tell me -about Martin Luther King, Ged? | 0:08:09 | 0:08:12 | |
-He was born in Atlanta, Georgia. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:16 | |
-It's nice having Emily at school... | 0:08:16 | 0:08:18 | |
-..because she helps me -find my way around... | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
-..and makes me feel better -when I'm down. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:27 | |
-I was new to the school in Year 7. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
-I didn't really know my way around. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
-But now I'm in Year 8, I know all -the teachers, I know my way around. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
-They're small things -but they make a big difference. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:45 | |
-I want you to find -the next numbers in the sequence. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
-The move from Year 7 to Year 8 -can be stressful... | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
-..because of all the changes. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
-You get a lot more homework -and things like that. | 0:08:56 | 0:09:00 | |
-But all the lessons are good -and you learn a lot. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:04 | |
-It's nice speaking Welsh in school -and going home and speaking English. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
-It's nice -having two languages in one day. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:13 | |
-Emily and Ged's school day -starts earlier than everyone else's. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:24 | |
-At 6.00am most mornings, they're at -the pool having a swimming lesson. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:34 | |
-Make sure -when you're coming through... | 0:09:34 | 0:09:37 | |
-..you hold the reach just a little -longer, then into the stroke. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
-Em? -Remember, early head on the fly. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
-So when you're coming through, -we get in there and then through. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:49 | |
-I got up at 4.30am this morning -because I needed to be here early. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:56 | |
-Swimming in the morning... | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
-..helps me get up on school days. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:02 | |
-It helps me focus too. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
-Sometimes I'm tired after swimming, -so I don't always want to get up... | 0:10:07 | 0:10:12 | |
-..but I do. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
-We swim for an hour and a half - -six o'clock till half seven. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:22 | |
-Then we get dressed... | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
-..and come up here... | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
-..and do our homework. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:30 | |

-Do you have any homework? | 0:10:53 | 0:10:55 | |
-I thought Year 7 was hard, -but Year 8... | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
-..I can't even think about Year 9. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
-Year 8 is hard enough. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:02 | |
-I do worry about -getting my homework in on time... | 0:11:03 | 0:11:07 | |
-..and doing my best in every lesson. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
-I'm enjoying school more this year -because of my circle of friends. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:18 | |
-I like the teachers. -It's quite nice, really. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:22 | |

-Write down one word -that you think describes... | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
-As well as Year 7 pupils... | 0:11:40 | 0:11:42 | |
-..there are two other new recruits -who've had to settle in quickly. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
-The trainee teachers. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:50 | |
-We're going to look over -what we've learnt about particles. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
-We'll finish off the graph... | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
-22-year-old Lowri Jones -and 27-year-old Rhodri Davies... | 0:11:57 | 0:12:02 | |
-..are two students -from the Llanfyllin area. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
-They started in early October. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:08 | |
-Every subject -welcomes trainee teachers... | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
-..because we, as teachers... | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
-..feel it's important -to train new teachers. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:19 | |
-The next generation of teachers. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
-They bring with them -new teaching methods and techniques. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:26 | |
-It's certainly a way -of learning something from them too. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:30 | |
-Thumbs up or down? Down. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:35 | |
-I always wanted to do -my teacher training... | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
-..but after leaving university, -I went home and worked on the farm. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:43 | |
-Approaching my 30th, I thought -I ought to do something before then. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:48 | |
-So I decided to go to Aberystwyth -and enrol on the PGCE course. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:54 | |
-Year 7, can I please have -your attention for a moment? | 0:12:54 | 0:12:59 | |
-A part of me -has always wanted to teach. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
-When I was at school, -I always admired teachers... | 0:13:03 | 0:13:07 | |
-..for the way they looked out -for you and worried about you. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:12 | |
-I thought -it would be a rewarding profession. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:16 | |
-Anyone remember -where a whirlwind happens? | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
-Where does a whirlwind happen? | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
-After a month's training -at university... | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
-..both have now -started teaching their own classes. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
-It rises and cools. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:32 | |
-Correct. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
-It condenses to create clouds. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
-I was worried about controlling the -class before coming to the school. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:43 | |
-I've never taught a lesson, I didn't -know how the children would respond. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:48 | |
-There's too much, -"Miss, Miss, Miss" going on. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:51 | |
-Hands up quietly, please. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
-Right! Hush! | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
-Year 8! | 0:13:58 | 0:13:59 | |
-The first lesson I taught... | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
-..was a photosynthesis experiment -with Year 9. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
-I felt a little bit out of my depth. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:11 | |
-There were lots of pupils moving -around, setting up equipment. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:16 | |
-There was lots of talking. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
-It didn't feel very controlled -because it was an experiment. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:22 | |
-I half expected that, but it was -full-on from the very beginning. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:28 | |
-Hush! Without complaining -and making a noise, please. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
-15 and 16-year-olds -are also under pressure... | 0:14:38 | 0:14:42 | |
-..with coursework and regular tests. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
-There are many opportunities -to sit GCSE exams... | 0:14:45 | 0:14:49 | |
-..from the beginning of Year 10 -to the end of Year 11. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:52 | |
-Tomorrow, halfway through November, -some pupils... | 0:14:53 | 0:14:57 | |
-..who sat -their maths exam last summer... | 0:14:57 | 0:15:00 | |
-..have a chance to resit the exam -to improve their grades. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:04 | |
-Well done, India. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
-So many college courses nowadays... | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
-..stipulate that students must have -a C or even a B in mathematics. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:14 | |
-If you want to become a teacher, -you need a grade B... | 0:15:15 | 0:15:18 | |
-..in your maths GCSE, so there's a -lot of pressure on maths teachers... | 0:15:19 | 0:15:24 | |
-..and pupils to pass the subject. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
-The area is -what's inside the shape, the circle. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:32 | |
-That's Pi R squared. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
-Pupils have been divided into sets. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
-The first set sits a higher paper, -in which they can attain an A grade. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:43 | |
-Gethin Jones, -a teacher and former pupil... | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
-..teaches a lower set. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
-25, not 10. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
-So I've got Pi multiplied by 25. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
-I'm teaching -the Year 11 second set... | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
-..hoping to achieve a C or a D. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
-They sat the exam -at the end of Year 10. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
-A few succeeded -and moved on to the higher paper... | 0:16:04 | 0:16:08 | |
-..while others failed. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:11 | |
-That's better. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:13 | |
-That's better. - -This will be their resit... | 0:16:13 | 0:16:15 | |
-..to attain a C grade. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
-They've already resat one paper -without a calculator. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:21 | |
-They face their second paper -tomorrow and they need to revise. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:26 | |
-That's better, Bethan. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:29 | |
-Bethan is one pupil -resitting the exam. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
-She gained an E last time. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
-I was very disappointed with that. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
-I sat other subjects -at the same time. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:42 | |
-I thought I'd done -worse than expected... | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
-..but nobody -likes having an E grade. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
-Is this right, sir? | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
-I want to be a Welsh-medium -primary schoolteacher. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:56 | |
-I've wanted to teach -ever since I was a child. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
-That's right. That's correct. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:04 | |
-So far so good. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
-Bethan's worked very hard. -Maths doesn't come easy to her. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:10 | |
-She's had extra tuition -because she's weak mathematically. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:14 | |
-Another pupil -aiming for a C this time... | 0:17:14 | 0:17:18 | |
-..is Owen. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
-I sat two exams last year. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:25 | |
-I had a D, which I was -a bit disappointed with. I need a C. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:30 | |
-A lot depends on tomorrow. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:33 | |
-I don't think -he revised enough last summer. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
-It shocked him. -I think he's ready for it this time. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:39 | |
-How many green ones are there? | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
-So, there. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
-Obed is also hoping for -a better result this time round. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:49 | |
-Last time I got a E, which I didn't -expect. I was hoping for a C. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
-I have to resit it. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
-Last time, -I had 13 mocks before the exam... | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
-..so I didn't have -much time to revise. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:06 | |
-That was my own fault. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
-That was my own fault. - -He didn't work last year. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:10 | |
-His head's in the clouds. When -he wants to succeed, he'll succeed. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:16 | |
-Where's your median and mean? | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-It's a disadvantage -having exams in Year 10... | 0:18:19 | 0:18:23 | |
-..because I wasn't ready for them. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
-I didn't really know -what I was doing. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
-It's fair to say that they're -a little early for Year 10... | 0:18:30 | 0:18:35 | |
-..but they have plenty of time -to revise for the resit... | 0:18:35 | 0:18:39 | |
-..so they have -a better chance of succeeding. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
-I feel quite confident -after the revision sessions. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
-I never know what to expect... | 0:19:02 | 0:19:05 | |
-..but I've done all I can. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
-I don't think it'll be -as difficult as last year. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
-I know how hard it'll be -but I know what I'm doing this time. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:15 | |
-Right then, Year 11. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:18 | |
-The mathematics exam begins now. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:21 | |
-One hour 45 minutes -for the lower paper. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:24 | |
-Two hours -for the higher paper. Good luck. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
-The exam has finished. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:48 | |
-Please close your papers. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
-What did you think of that? | 0:19:51 | 0:19:53 | |
-What did you think of that? - -I had trouble... | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
-..with one part. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
-I found some questions -harder than others. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:02 | |
-The first paper was easier. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
-I still think I'll be OK. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
-They gave you loads of space. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
-They gave you loads of space. - -For the car? Two pages? | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
-I took up four lines. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:14 | |
-I panicked because -I thought I had to write more. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
-I'm quite happy with it. It was -much better than last year's paper. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:22 | |
-I hope I'll get a C. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
-I hope I'll get a C. - -They were there to make us struggle. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
-Fingers' crossed. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:30 | |
-I think Mr Jones will be pleased. -We've all worked so hard. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:35 | |
-He's worked hard too. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
-He's worked hard too. - -Time for a break now. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
-What would the number be this side? | 0:20:49 | 0:20:50 | |
-What would the number be this side? - -15. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:51 | |
-Trainee teachers Rhodri and Lowri -have a challenging term ahead. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:56 | |
-The paperwork seems never-ending. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:59 | |
-So does that explain...? | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
-The easiest part of teaching -is standing in front of the class. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:07 | |
-That's what I -enjoy the most about it. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
-The hardest part -is getting to that point... | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
-..because it requires -a lot of forward planning. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:17 | |
-What about your clothes? | 0:21:17 | 0:21:19 | |
-I do the marking before I go home -as I don't want to carry books home. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:25 | |
-I start planning the lessons -about six o'clock. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
-Rarely do I finish before midnight. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
-But that's what it takes to do -the work to the highest standard. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:38 | |
-I'm formerly assessed once a week... | 0:21:38 | 0:21:42 | |
-..but I'm assessed during every -lesson by a qualified teacher. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:47 | |
-There's always feedback -on ways to improve. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
-I've got a tip for you. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
-When you're writing on the -white board, involve the pupils. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
-Get the pupils to come up so that -you're interacting with them more. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:05 | |
-A little tip. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:07 | |
-Front row, you can go. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
-I was expecting this much work... | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
-..but it's -still difficult to manage. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
-So far, I'm happy -I took the decision to teach. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:18 | |
-Does anyone else want one of these? | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
-Does anyone else want one of these? - -It goes across. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
-It's a lot of work... | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
-..but I think -it'll be worth it in the end. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
-The results of the mathematics GCSE -have arrived. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
-D. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
-You just failed it, I'm afraid. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:41 | |
-You just failed it, I'm afraid. - -Disappointment for Obed. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
-Six marks away from a C. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:45 | |
-This is -how it's turned out this time. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:49 | |
-A D this time. Are you disappointed? | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
-A C is out of -Bethan's reach this time too. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
-Four marks? Grrr! | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
-Alright. -I want to pass it in the summer. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
-You will do. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:03 | |
-You will do. - -Yes, I know. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
-I'll make sure of that. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
-I'll make sure of that. - -What about Owen? | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
-Will he -have to resit for the third time? | 0:23:09 | 0:23:12 | |
-Grade C. Congratulations. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:14 | |
-Thanks. Thanks, sir. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
-Thanks. Thanks, sir. - -You've done really well. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:17 | |
-Chuffed? | 0:23:17 | 0:23:18 | |
-Chuffed? - -Yes. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
-Next week... | 0:23:21 | 0:23:22 | |
-..we'll hear about -Maes Garmon's close-knit community. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
-Maes Garmon -means a great deal to me. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
-And about the headteacher's family. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:32 | |
-And about the headteacher's family. - -It's nice seeing her smile. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
