-2 A-X. Oh, no! No. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
-And not just for the pupils. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |

-Year 8! - -And you're at it already. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:19 | |
-Though many claim to be experts, -they don't truly know... | 0:00:20 | 0:00:24 | |
-..what happens on school corridors -between 8.30am and 3.30pm. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:29 | |
-Ysgol Maes Garmon in Mold is opening -its doors to television cameras. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:37 | |
-# I don't ask -for a luxurious life... | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
-This is the only Welsh-medium -secondary school in Flintshire... | 0:00:49 | 0:00:54 | |
-..attracting pupils -from Talacre to Deeside... | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |

-# Only a pure heart can sing | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
-# Through the day -and through the night # | 0:01:19 | 0:01:25 | |
-Headmistress Bronwen Hughes -strongly believes... | 0:01:25 | 0:01:30 | |
-..in creating a family atmosphere. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
-It's a good school -because it's small. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
-We're more like a family -than a school. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
-There aren't too many pupils here... | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
-..so if there are -any problems at school... | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
-..the teachers can help -and deal with them straightaway. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
-You're good children. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
-I like the subjects -and the teachers. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
-I enjoy lessons. I like the school. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
-We're such a close-knit community. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
-This is my second home, really. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
-We go on about the family ethos -all the time but it's true. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:12 | |
-I, along with the pupils, -refer to the Maes Garmon family. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:20 | |
-We're such a small school, -we all know one another. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
-We know the parents -and grandparents. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
-Many parents are also pupils. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
-Many of our staff -are former pupils too... | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
-..and this retains -the familial atmosphere. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
-That's what's important - -the Maes Garmon family. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
-Maes Garmon means so much to me. -I'm a former pupil. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
-I'm a former teacher -and now I'm the headmistress. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
-My children are pupils here -and I live in the community. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
-I definitely have -an emotional attachment... | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
-..to Maes Garmon. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
-It's a family -and a close-knit community. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
-Maes Garmon -means a great deal to me. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
-After training -at Bangor University... | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
-..Bronwen returned as an art, -design and technology teacher. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
-Following a period -at Ysgol Morgan Llwyd, Wrexham... | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
-..as a teacher, head of department -and deputy head... | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
-..the opportunity arose in 2010 to -return to Maes Garmon as the head. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:42 | |
-The job is certainly challenging. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
-There's far more paperwork -than I expected... | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
-..and you're open to pressure -from all directions. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
-My priority -are the children in our care. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
-What's important is the welfare -of Maes Garmon's pupils. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:00 | |
-Look at me. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
-Depends -what you're going to do to me. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
-I'm afraid what you're going to do! | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
-That's it. Look, you moved. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
-I describe being a head and a mother -as a process of wearing two hats. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:24 | |
-A headmistress' hat -and a mother's hat. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
-None of the three -have known Maes Garmon... | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
-..without Mam being there -on the corridors. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
-They know no different because -I started when Tomos began Year 7. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:39 | |
-When I was in Year 7 -she'd smile at me loads. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:44 | |
-I'd look at the wall -when she walked towards me. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:49 | |
-Now I say "hello" every time! | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
-I quite like it, actually. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
-It's better than -not having Mam as the headmistress. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:58 | |
-Beca and Catrin are 14. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
-In case you hadn't noticed, -they're twins! | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
-I like being a twin. It's like -having a best friend at school. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:12 | |
-When you get a Christmas card -from a friend, it's to both of us... | 0:05:12 | 0:05:17 | |
-..instead of individually. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
-Sometimes they treat us -as one person when we're not. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:23 | |
-SHE READS ALOUD | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
-"A small child, weaker than wheat -with two left feet on the pitch." | 0:05:25 | 0:05:30 | |
-Our friends can tell us apart -but the teachers can't. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
-It's annoying when -they call me Catrin and her Beca... | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
-..because I don't think we look -alike when I look in the mirror. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:44 | |
-There are -loads of scratches on your Golf. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
-There aren't that many on it. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:52 | |
-Family life -is incredibly important to me. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:56 | |
-Tea or coffee? | 0:05:56 | 0:05:57 | |
-Tea or coffee? - -Coffee. | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
-We're bilingual at home. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
-Graham doesn't speak Welsh, -although he understands a lot. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:06 | |
-I come from a bilingual household. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
-Mam was a Welsh speaker -from Penmachno... | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
-..while my father was from Belfast. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
-I'm used to switching back and forth -from Welsh to English. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
-Husband Graham -is also a headteacher... | 0:06:20 | 0:06:24 | |
-..at Castell Alun High School -in Hope near Wrexham. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:28 | |
-Living with another headteacher -can be difficult sometimes. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:34 | |
-We both carry major work pressures. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
-We're headteachers -in the same county... | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
-..which means -we attend the same meetings. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
-We can sympathize and share ideas. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
-Mam gets more stressed than Dad. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:49 | |
-Dad just gets on with it... | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
-..whereas Mam gets overstressed. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
-Maes Garmon's a great school. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
-I wouldn't want to be headmistress -of any other school. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:04 | |

-Both play for the Mold team, -the northeast Wales team... | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
-..and the school team. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:25 | |
-The school -has a strong sporting tradition. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
-Though it's a small school, -we somehow mange to do very well. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |

-They're easy to captain. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
-I love being captain. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
-There are different pools -and the pool winners... | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
-..play in the quarters, -then the semis and then the final. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
-Every game -lasts a mere eight minutes... | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
-..so not much time -for the girls to prove themselves. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
-But they do. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:07 | |
-But they do. - -Well done. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:08 | |

-..and reading from workshop manuals. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
-The learner doesn't think of it -as being maths or English or ITC. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:10 | |

-..because you can -think more for yourself... | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
-..than when you're in a group. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
-Because of his interest in cars, -Ross now knows... | 0:16:42 | 0:16:46 | |
-..what he wants to do next year. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |

-You have to have a lot of patience -at times with them. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
-The children -look after them after each lesson. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:03 | |
-They have to leave them threaded. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
-But if they're tangled inside... | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
-..then I... | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
-..come and fix them -and rethread them... | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
-..ready for the next lesson. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |

-..to go to Maes Garmon -as a learner... | 0:19:33 | 0:19:36 | |
-..because he liked -the close-knit atmosphere there. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:40 | |
-I remember when Mam worked -during the holidays... | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
-..there was no-one to look after me, -so I went with her... | 0:19:45 | 0:19:49 | |
-..and I always felt -that it had a family vibe about it. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |
