Diolch, Heledd. Yn gyntaf oll, a gaf i achub ar y cyfle i gofnodi fy niolch diffuant i bawb sy'n gweithio yn ein hysgolion? Rwy'n cydnabod ein bod yn gofyn llawer gan ysgolion ar hyn o bryd. Maent yn gweithredu diwygiadau mawr ar yr un pryd ag adfer ar ôl…

Diolch am y cwestiwn olaf hwnnw, ac a gaf i ddweud fy mod yn credu bod y Prif Weinidog wedi rhoi'r holl wybodaeth yr oedd gofyn iddo ei rhoi i'r ymchwiliad COVID? Mae wedi dweud yn hollol glir ei fod yn barod iawn i barhau i ateb cwestiynau gan yr ymchwiliad…

Cwestiynau i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Addysg
Wel, rwy'n credu eich bod yn crafu gwaelod y gasgen, mae'n rhaid imi ddweud hynny, Tom. Ac rwyf ychydig yn siomedig, mewn gwirionedd, nad ydych wedi defnyddio eich cwestiynau ar gyfer rhywbeth sy'n ymwneud yn fwy uniongyrchol ag addysg. Roedd hyn bedair…

Diolch am y cwestiwn hwnnw. Rwy'n bryderus iawn am y ffordd y mae neges, a oedd yn y bôn yn sgwrs ar ôl cyfarfod grŵp, wedi cael cymaint o sylw. Rwy'n cofio'r cyfarfod grŵp mewn gwirionedd. Roeddwn yn Gadeirydd y Pwyllgor Plant, Pobl Ifanc ac Addysg ar y…

Diolch yn fawr iawn, Paul. A gaf i eich sicrhau ein bod yn cydnabod gwerth unigryw dysgu yn yr awyr agored a'r budd y mae'n ei gynnig i blant a phobl ifanc, gan gynnwys cefnogi datblygiad ffyrdd iach ac egnïol o fyw, datblygu sgiliau datrys problemau, a deall…

Mae manteision dysgu yn yr awyr agored yn cael eu hyrwyddo drwy'r Cwricwlwm i Gymru. Rydym yn gwybod ei fod yn alluogwr allweddol i blant archwilio, ymarfer a gwella eu sgiliau gan gefnogi eu datblygiad cymdeithasol, emosiynol, ysbrydol a chorfforol ar yr un…

Diolch yn fawr iawn, Russell, nid oeddwn yn ymwybodol o'r sefyllfa honno yn eich etholaeth, felly mae'n ddefnyddiol iawn gwybod hynny. Rwy'n credu fy mod yn yr un lle â fy rhagflaenydd, mewn gwirionedd. Yn amlwg, rydym am sicrhau bod y ddeddfwriaeth yn…

Diolch yn fawr iawn, Delyth. Yn amlwg, rwy'n cydnabod yr heriau y mae llawer o deuluoedd yn eu hwynebu ar hyn o bryd yn ystod yr argyfwng costau byw. Fe fyddwch yn ymwybodol fod yn rhaid i bob awdurdod lleol ddarparu cludiant am ddim yn unol â Mesur Teithio…

Absolutely, and we've got a monitoring project that is looking at what data we need to develop. We've started publishing our personalised assessment reports. Obviously, we publish GCSE data. And you're absolutely right, the kids who went through the Programme…

Go and look at the legislation, Gareth, if you don't believe me. You will see that knowledge is in there. We are looking, as I said, as part of the additional scaffolding that we're looking to provide, to make sure that there is that consistent support for…

—and it's certainly not helpful to try and suggest that I am saying anyone is lying. Luke Sibieta has done that work. I value his opinion. He's on my list to meet to talk about the IFS report, and I'm really keen to listen not just to all the stakeholders…

Well, I'm really keen that we have a really strong focus on literacy and numeracy. We have a numeracy action plan. We've got work in train on literacy as well. I'm really keen that that's a high priority in everything that we're doing, and as I said, there…

I'm saying that I don't agree with them that knowledge is not key to the new curriculum, and I think that's pretty clear, really. I have read the report carefully. I'm particularly worried about the attainment gap between our most disadvantaged children in…

Well, as I said in the debate that was tabled on this in the Chamber recently, I do take really seriously any reports like that. It is really important that we listen to what academics are saying, so I felt that the report raised serious issues. Attainment is…

Okay, thank you. Well, obviously, meeting children’s needs at the earliest possible time is incredibly important. We do have ALN early years lead officers in place. They are working to improve services for younger children. Again, I think we could do with…

Well, I don't think that means, though, that we're not going to anything in the meantime, because officials are already working with local authorities on an individual basis to get under the skin of what is happening. So, there's no suggestion that we're…
