Ers dechrau yn ei swydd fel Gweinidog Addysg a’r Iaith Gymraeg, mae Jeremy Miles wedi bod yn siarad â phobl yn y system ysgolion ledled y wlad i glywed yn uniongyrchol ganddynt am yr heriau sy'n eu hwynebu wrth gefnogi dysgwyr yn ystod y pandemig, a pha help sydd arnynt ei angen.  

  

Bydd y mesurau a gyhoeddwyd heddiw’n helpu i leihau baich gweinyddol ysgolion ac yn galluogi dull mwy unigol o gefnogi pobl ifanc yng Nghymru.  

  

Maent yn cynnwys:


* atal rhaglen arolygu graidd Estyn ar gyfer ysgolion ac unedau atgyfeirio disgyblion (PRUs) ymhellach i gynnwys tymor yr hydref 2021 ac i dreialu dull newydd o arolygu gyda chytundeb ysgolion ’yn nhymor y gwanwyn
* bydd atal mesurau perfformiad ysgolion yn cael ei ymestyn i 2021/22
* ni fydd categoreiddio ysgolion yn digwydd yn y flwyddyn academaidd nesaf
* rheoliadau newydd sy'n llacio ystod o ofynion adrodd ysgolion ar gyfer 2020/21, gan gefnogi'r sicrwydd a roddwyd yn flaenorol ynglyn a ddefnyddio data ysgolion a effeithwyd gan y pandemig


Dywedodd y Gweinidog:


Fy mlaenoriaethau i ar gyfer y flwyddyn sydd i ddod yw adnewyddu a diwygio, gan roi cynnydd a lles y dysgwyr wrth wraidd popeth rydym yn ei wneud. Wrth i ni adfer ar ôl y pandemig, gan weithio tuag at gyflawni'r cwricwlwm newydd, rydw i eisiau adeiladu ar yr arloesi, yr hyblygrwydd a’r ffocws ar les sydd wedi ein helpu ni drwy'r cyfnod hwn o darfu.



> Y neges glir rydw i wedi’i derbyn gan y gweithlu addysg yw eu bod yn benderfynol o wneud popeth o fewn eu gallu i helpu dysgwyr i wneud cynnydd, ond mae pwysau sy'n effeithio ar eu gallu i wneud hyn. Rydw i wedi gwrando ac yn gweithredu i'w cefnogi.
> 
> 
> Mae'r camau a gyhoeddwyd heddiw’n adeiladu ar yr ystod o fesurau rydyn ni eisoes wedi'u rhoi ar waith eleni i leddfu pwysau a darparu hyblygrwydd. Mae hyn yn cael ei gefnogi gan fwy na £150m o gyllid i gefnogi lles, dysgu ac addysgu eleni.
> 
> 
> Byddaf yn parhau i weithio gydag ysgolion, arweinwyr a dysgwyr ar y camau eraill y gallwn eu cymryd i greu gofod yn y system i gefnogi adnewyddu a diwygio.

Since taking up post as Minister for Education and Welsh Language, Jeremy Miles has been speaking to people within the school system across the country to hear directly from them about the challenges they face in supporting learners during the pandemic, and what help they need.


The measures announced today will help reduce administrative burdens on schools and enable a more individualised approach to supporting young people in Wales.  

  

They include:


* the suspension of Estyn’s core inspection programme for schools and pupil referral units (PRUs) to be extended to include the autumn term 2021 and to pilot a new approach to inspections with schools’ agreement in the spring term
* the suspension of school performance measures will be extended to 2021/22
* school categorisation will not take place in the next academic year
* new regulations that relax a range of school reporting requirements for 2020/21, supporting the assurances previously provided around the use of school data affected by the coronavirus pandemic


The Minister said:



> My priorities for the coming year are to renew and reform, putting learners’ progression and wellbeing at the heart of everything we do. As we recover from the pandemic, working towards delivery of the new curriculum, I want to build on the innovation, flexibility and focus on wellbeing that have helped us through this period of disruption.
