At our last meeting we met with the Vale Cabinet for our termly meeting and we were able to update them on the work we have been involved in. This included telling them about our recent meetings which have included raising young people's concerns about the Welsh Bacc, Pupil Funding and the proposed changes to the Youth Service. We have also sent several letters to decision-makers explaining our views on these topics.
We also shared with them our proposal to introduce new work experience placements within the Council for young people in Yr10 - Yr13. They liked our idea and we will now be working with the officer in charge to try and make this happen.
Finally we spent some time reviewing and evaluating the running of the Youth Cabinet and our term of office to make sure we can provide any advice and support to future Youth Cabinet members.
Our final session will be on Friday to celebrate our term of office and say goodbye to several members who will be off to university in September.
