Which "More Learners SUCCEEDING with Welsh" projects shall we work on first...?

You can tick as many as you like.

Things which might influence decisions...

Are you willing/able to lead on it
Is is something measurable
Are there costs which would need to be met?
Is it something lots of people could get involved with.
Is it specific enough or do we need to break it down more?
Could it start soon?

Other stuff...?
