Okay, understood. Thank you so much for that answer. Karen, do you have anything to add?

I completely understand. And my last question, because I know you've covered a lot of the answers to questions that I was going to ask you, but you mentioned, I believe it was Deb, in answer to one of the questions that Buffy asked, in relation to role…

And a viewpoint that some children and young people have is they're not good enough, they're not cut out for university. Is that something that's very much from their teachers, from their peers, or is it just generally everyone around them?

I think you’ve covered pretty much everything I wanted to ask you, but in relation to age, I completely appreciate what you're saying, and I think that when the child moves from junior school to secondary school it's a huge jump for them in every sense of the…

Okay. I’m sure we will in future, rest assured. Thank you so much for that. So, who’s responsible for the poor quality of the information going out to young people then? And who can improve it?
29 Ionawr 2025 , Children, Young People, and Education Committee

Of course you can, yes.

So, to make it simpler, then, in a one-word answer, who do you think should be responsible for supplying the information to make sure that they’re aware of just the options that are available to them?

There's just one final question and it's on an area and subject that everyone's touched upon, in the phrase, but I think we should ask a question on it. It's: to what extent does the poor quality of information and support provided to learners at school…

You just mentioned that, when it comes to Welsh language schools, there are certain factors that need to be considered to look at development. What exactly—?

So, what factors do you think we need to consider?

Perfect. So, this question's for everybody—I hope that's all right: Gower College Swansea has told us that senior leaders in schools with small sixth forms feel under particular pressure to secure enrolments. Is this something that you, perhaps, recognise in…

Not a problem. If it's okay with you, if you have a think about it and write to us as a committee, I think that would be really appreciated.

Okay. Thank you very much for that. And do you think that having an equivalent to the Baker clause in England here in Wales would help address the issue of access to pupils here in schools?

Okay. Thank you for answering the question. So, just for my own knowledge—and I hope you don't mind; I will come back to the questioning area that we want to focus on as well—and I appreciate that, yes, and I can put my hands up and say that I'd probably be…

Can you confidently say that there is equality in this belief and, I should say, can-do attitude, when it comes to that collaboration? Because the frustration I have is that I've actually gone to a lot of schools, I've visited colleges and, quite frankly…

Thank you so much, Chair. Good morning, everyone. My first couple of questions are going to be targeted at Mr Amlyn, and I hope that's okay. Your paper says that the schools with six forms will predominantly promote their own subjects over FE establishments…
