In my oral statement on 13 June I provided an update on the significant progress made to support the teaching of digital skills as part of our curriculum reform.  In my statement I also indicated that I would make a further announcement on how we will support the development of coding skills for young people in Wales.  

  

Today I am pleased to launch ‘Cracking the Code – a plan to expand code clubs in every part of Wales.’  The plan sets out how Welsh Government will work in partnership with schools, colleges, consortia, universities, businesses, industry and the third sector to support the teaching of coding skills both in and outside of the classroom in local areas across Wales.  

  

As part of our national mission to improve education standards, we are making great strides to ensure that our learners are digitally competent and capable of thriving in the modern, digital world.  To succeed as a nation and as individuals we need to enable all our learners to become creative authors of technology as well as competent users.  To achieve this, our learners need to be able to code, which is an essential building block of our modern world.  

  

Coding skills can be developed across a broad range of subjects within the curriculum and through code clubs.  The new Curriculum for Wales currently under development by Pioneer schools will include computing within the Science and Technology Area of Learning and Experience.  But we need not wait until all schools are teaching to the new curriculum.  I want to encourage more schools now to develop fun and engaging approaches which help build learners’ understanding of code.  Code clubs are a proven means to support the introduction and development of coding skills, and provide enriching learning experiences for teachers and learners within which they can try something new.  

  

To support the delivery of Cracking the Code we will work collectively with our partners to achieve improved learning on code under three strategic actions:


1. Raise awareness and highlight the benefits of code clubs to headteachers, teachers, learners and parents.
2. Break down the barriers to participation in code clubs.
3. Broker and facilitate coding experiences.


The plan will be supported by £1\.3m over this Assembly term which has been directed through the regional education consortia.  The funding will allow schools and regional consortia to provide teachers the space and capacity to work with partners at local, national and international levels.  

  

Many schools are already working with other schools and partners to deliver coding skills.  As I launch Cracking the code I am pleased to announce that the following partners have demonstrated their support to work in partnership with us in taking forward the plan:


* Bafta
* Big Learning Company \- Official Lego®  Education partner
* British Council
* BT Barefoot Computing
* Colleges in Wales
* Computing at School (CAS)
* Microsoft Education
* Raspberry Pi Foundation and Code Club
* Royal Air Force
* Sony UK Technology Centre
* Technocamps
* Universities in Wales


This list is neither exclusive nor exhaustive.  This is the start of our journey together as we work towards bringing coding skills to the forefront of our curriculum reforms.  

  

As part of this initiative we will be launching an innovative Minecraft Education pilot Programme with Microsoft UK.  The pilot will bring together schools and educators from across the country to support the development of young people’s digital skills through use of the Minecraft: Education Edition Code Builder, and share best practice in this dynamic environment.

Yn fy natganiad llafar ar 13 Mehefin rhoddais y newyddion diweddaraf am y gwaith sylweddol sy’n cael ei wneud i gefnogi addysgu sgiliau digidol fel rhan o’r gwaith i ddiwygio’r cwricwlwm. Yn y datganiad hwnnw awgrymais y byddwn yn gwneud datganiad pellach ar sut y byddwn ni yn cefnogi datblygu sgiliau codio ar gyfer pobl ifanc yng Nghymru.   
  
Heddiw, mae’n bleser gen i lansio ‘Cracio’r Cod – cynllun i ehangu clybiau codio ym mhob rhan o Gymru.’  Mae’r cynllun hwn yn nodi sut bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn cydweithio ag ysgolion, colegau, consortia, prifysgolion, busnesau, diwydiant a’r trydydd sector i gefnogi addysgu sgiliau codio o fewn yr ystafell ddosbarth a’r tu allan iddi, a hynny mewn ardaloedd lleol ledled Cymru.   
  
Fel rhan o’r ymgyrch genedlaethol sydd gan Lywodraeth Cymru i wella safonau addysg, rydym wedi gwneud cryn gynnydd i sicrhau bod ein dysgwyr yn gymwys yn y maes digidol ac y gallant fynd o nerth i nerth yn y byd modern digidol sydd ohoni. Er mwyn llwyddo fel cenedl ac unigolion, mae angen i ni hwyluso pob dysgwr i ddatblygu yn awduron creadigol ym maes technoleg, gan sicrhau eu bod yn fedrus iawn wrth ddefnyddio’r dechnoleg honno.  Er mwyn cyrraedd y nod hwn, mae angen i’n dysgwyr allu codio, sy’n rhan bwysig o sylfaen ein byd modern.  
  
Mae modd datblygu sgiliau codio ar draws ystod eang o bynciau o fewn y cwricwlwm a thrwy glybiau codio.  Bydd y Cwricwlwm Cymru newydd sy’n cael ei ddatblygu ar hyn o bryd gan Ysgolion Arloesi yn cynnwys cyfrifiadura o fewn y Maes Dysgu a Phrofiad Gwyddoniaeth a Thechnoleg.  Ond nid oes rhaid i ni aros tan fod pob ysgol yn addysgu’r cwricwlwm newydd.  Yn awr, rwyf eisiau annog rhagor o ysgolion i ddatblygu ffyrdd llawn hwyl sy’n cydio yn y dychymyg ac yn help i ddysgwyr feithrin dealltwriaeth o’r cod.  Mae clybiau codio yn ffordd o gyflwyno a datblygu sgiliau codio sydd wedi ennill ei phlwyf. Mae’n darparu profiadau dysgu sy’n cyfoethogi athrawon a dysgwyr ac sydd, yn eu tro, yn rhoi cyfle iddynt roi cynnig ar bethau newydd.  
  
Er mwyn cefnogi cyflawni Cracio’r Cod byddwn yn gweithio gyda’n partneriaid i gyflawni gwell dysgu ym maes codio. Daw hyn o dan dri cham strategol:  


1. Codi ymwybyddiaeth o fanteision clybiau codio ymhlith penaethiaid, athrawon, dysgwyr a rhieni.
2. Chwalu’r rhwystrau rhag cymryd rhan mewn clybiau codio.
3. Broceru a hwyluso profiadau codio.

Rhoddir £1\.3m yn gefnogaeth i’r cynllun dros dymor y Cynulliad hwn. Mae’r arian hwn yn cael ei roi i’r consortia addysg rhanbarthol.  Bydd y cyllid yn caniatáu i ysgolion a chonsortia rhanbarthol ddarparu lle a chapasiti i athrawon gydweithio â phartneriaid ar lefelau lleol, cenedlaethol a rhyngwladol.  
  
Mae llawer o ysgolion eisoes yn cydweithio ag ysgolion eraill a phartneriaid i ddarparu sgiliau codio.  Wrth lansio ‘Cracio’r Cod ’ rwy’n falch o gael cyfle i gyhoeddi bod y partneriaid a ganlyn wedi dangos cefnogaeth i weithio mewn partneriaeth i symud ymlaen gyda’r cynllun hwn:  
* Bafta
* Big Learning Company \- partner addysgol swyddogol Lego®
* British Council
* BT Barefoot Computing
* Colegau yng Nghymru
* Cyfrifiadura yn yr Ysgol (CAS)
* Microsoft Education
* Sefydliad Raspberry Pi a Code Club
* Y Llu Awyr Brenhinol
* Sony UK Technology Centre
* Technocamps
* Prifysgolion yng Nghymru

Nid yw’r rhestr hon yn hollgynhwysol nac yn gyflawn.  Dyma ddechrau ein taith gyda’n gilydd wrth i ni anelu at roi lle amlwg i sgiliau codio drwy fwrw ati i ddiwygio’r cwricwlwm.   
  
Fel rhan o’r fenter hon byddwn yn lansio Rhaglen beilot arloesol Minecraft Education gyda Microsoft UK.  Bydd y peilot yn dod ag ysgolion ag addysgwyr ledled y wlad ynghyd i gefnogi datblygiad sgiliau digidol pobl ifanc drwy ddefnyddio Minecraft: Education Edition Code Builder a rhannu’r arferion gorau yn yr amgylchedd deinamig hwn.
