Bwriad y section yw'r bwriad y mae Heledd Fychan wedi'i esbonio: plant sy'n dechrau mewn ysgolion cynradd sydd yn darparu addysg trwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg yn symud ymlaen i ysgolion uwchradd sydd yn gwneud yr un peth.

The same reason why I'm not attracted to targets in other aspects of the Bill would apply to the argument there, on the face of the Bill. But the more general question as to whether or not we ought to revise some targets that we have in other parts of our…

Mae rhwymedigaeth ar ysgolion nawr i greu school development plans, a bob tair blynedd maen nhw'n gwneud hynny. So, mae jest yn trio tynnu'r ddau beth at ei gilydd, fel bod yr un cyfnod am SDPs a hefyd am y cynlluniau newydd. Dyna pam. Dim mwy na hynny.

Mae pwrpas i'r ysgolion sy'n rhoi addysg trwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg i gael cynllun, dwi'n meddwl. Rydyn ni eisiau i bob ysgol fod ar daith i wella beth maen nhw'n gwneud, ac mae cael cynllun yn mynd i'w helpu nhw i wneud—. Dydyn ni ddim yn siarad am gynllun mawr…

Wrth gwrs, dwi'n fodlon meddwl am unrhyw syniadau sydd gan y pwyllgor. Ar hyn o bryd, dwi'n meddwl bod y Bil yn eithaf clir. Dwi wedi trio egluro rhai pethau o flaen y pwyllgor heddiw, a dwi'n fodlon egluro pethau fel yna ar lawr y Senedd hefyd, pe byddai…

I don't believe, in the way that I think the final part of Cefin's question suggested, that schools will be out just to game the system. My own experience of the education system is that it is full of people who want to do the right thing. Sometimes they are…

Wel, fel esboniais i yn yr ateb i Vaughan Gething, ac i Tom Giffard hefyd, mae'n bwysig i gael y cyfnodau yna i roi hyder i'r bobl sydd ddim yn hyderus ar hyn o bryd y gallan nhw wneud beth mae'r Bil eisiau iddyn nhw ei wneud. Ond dwi ddim eisiau gweld…

Dwi wedi rhannu, dwi'n meddwl, gyda'r pwyllgor yr amserlen sydd gyda ni ar hyn o bryd, ac yn y ddogfen yna mae'n dangos bydd y rheoliadau yn eu lle erbyn Gorffennaf 2027. So, dyna'r amserlen sydd gyda ni. Ac wrth gwrs, rŷn ni wedi—. I roi unrhyw bŵer yn y…

Wel, fel y dywedais i, Cadeirydd, dwi’n cydnabod y pryderon a pham mae pobl yn dweud hynny ac yn codi pryder, ond dwi ddim yn meddwl y bydd hwnna’n effaith o'r Bil o gwbl. Jest i ddweud unwaith eto, mae’r Llywodraeth, a’r Bil, yn hollol gefnogol i addysg trwy…

Wel, Cadeirydd, mae’r Bil yn fwy na’r iaith. Mae’n rhoi rhwymedigaethau ar ysgolion i greu diwylliant Cymraeg hefyd. So, pan oeddwn i’n cyfeirio at wasanaethau yn y bore, i fi, mae hwnna’n rhan o’r uchelgais eang sydd yn y Bil, i dyfu’r defnydd o’r iaith…

I hope it will be a mixture of both. I think there will be other things in it as well. An assembly once a week conducted in the Welsh language will count towards the 10 per cent. So, there are things that will happen during the compulsory school day that will…

Well, the only evidence we have is that evidence that was collected during the consultation on the non-statutory target of 10 per cent. There were schools that reported as low as 5 per cent, but I don't think anybody said they had less than that, and it's…

No, which is why the Bill provides two three-year extension periods. I would not expect many schools in Carmarthenshire to need that. I probably do expect that more schools in Blaenau Gwent would. But I am more ambitious than some of the witnesses you may…

I myself don't believe that there is confusion now. Those schools exist. They already advertise what they do. They are already understood by parents who use them. I don't think the Bill adds any degree of confusion in that way, and, as I say, there will be…

Well, I think, myself, if I could say, Tom, I would have put the question the other way around. The remarkable thing is not that we do not have figures for the other two categories on the face of the Bill, but we do have a figure for primarily English…

Bil y Gymraeg ac Addysg (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 16
I think it is a point of view that does not take properly into account the fact that there is a regulation-making power in the Bill that Ministers will use to set out the range in dual language schools and primarily Welsh-medium schools as well. The only…

The Bill is designed to harness the effort that is made across the whole of the education spectrum to that goal of a million Welsh speakers by 2050. Where is the ground that we most need to make up if we are to do that? And I think that is in primarily…

Well, I've seen that evidence coming to the committee. I don't want to say that I don't understand it. The ground that has been won for Welsh-medium education has been hard won, and, as I say, it's been hugely successful in the last 30 years. It's been a…

I'll try and deal with all of them, other than the interface between CEFR, WJEC and Qualifications Wales, which I'll ask Bethan to do. Does CEFR have a place in Welsh-medium education—people who are first-language Welsh speakers? We believe that it does. It…
