Introduced in 2014, the National School Categorisation System places schools into one of four colour\-coded support categories to demonstrate the level of support they need \- green, yellow, amber and red. 

 There are now more schools in the green and yellow categories when compared to last year. Green schools require just four days of support and yellow schools receive up to 10 days of support. 

 This year sees a small change to the factors that decide a school’s category. Instead of just looking at areas such as performance, including GCSE results, there is now a much broader assessment that considers areas such as teacher assessments from other subjects, wellbeing and the quality of teaching and learning. 

 The purpose of including a broader and more sophisticated range of factors is to understand the kind of support needed by a school and to give parents a better picture of how a school is performing. 

 Out of over 1,500 schools across Wales only 4 appealed against their category. 

 In summary: 

 * 85\.3 per cent of primary schools and 68\.3 per cent of secondary schools are now in the green and yellow categories. This increase from last year continues the upward trend since 2015\.
* There has been a very small rise in the proportion of red schools – those identified as needing most support – by 0\.4 percentage points in the primary sector and 2\.9 percentage points in the secondary sector.
* 45 per cent of special schools have been categorised as green, and needing less support, with no schools categorised as red and in need of most support.

 Cabinet Secretary for Education Kirsty Williams said: 

 
> “I’m pleased to see that more schools are now in the green and yellow categories, which continues with the upward trend we have seen over the past few years. 
> 
>  “These schools have a key role to play in supporting other schools to improve by sharing their expertise, skills and good practice. 
> 
>  “Last September, I announced that to further raise schools standards we would make changes to the school categorisation system following advice from the OECD. 
> 
>  “As well as taking into account a much broader range of factors about a school’s ability to improve, categorisation now places more of an emphasis on discussions about how the school could improve – leading to a tailored programme of support, challenge and intervention. 
> 
>  “I’m confident that the changes we have made to the categorisation process are in the best interests of pupils and will help ensure schools are given the right support at the right time.”

Cafodd y System Genedlaethol ar gyfer Categoreiddio Ysgolion ei chyflwyno yn 2014, ac mae'n gosod ysgolion mewn un o bedwar categori cymorth lliw i ddangos lefel y cymorth sydd ei angen \- gwyrdd, melyn, oren a choch. 

 Bellach mae mwy o ysgolion yn y categorïau gwyrdd a melyn na'r llynedd. Mae angen pedwar diwrnod o gymorth ar ysgolion gwyrdd ac mae ysgolion melyn yn cael hyd at 10 diwrnod. 

 Eleni, mae yna newid bach yn y ffactorau sy'n penderfynu ar gategori ysgol. Yn hytrach nag edrych ar feysydd megis perfformiad yn unig, gan gynnwys arholiadau TGAU, mae'r asesiad yn llawer ehangach erbyn hyn gan roi sylw i feysydd fel asesiadau athrawon pynciau eraill, llesiant ac ansawdd yr addysgu a'r dysgu. 

 Diben cynnwys amrywiaeth ehangach, fwy soffistigedig o ffactorau yw deall y math o gymorth sydd ei angen ar ysgol a rhoi darlun gwell i rieni o sut mae ysgol yn perfformio. 

 O fwy na 1,500 o ysgolion ledled Cymru, dim ond pedair a apeliodd yn erbyn eu categori. 

 I grynhoi: 

 * Mae 85\.3 y cant o ysgolion cynradd a 68\.3 y cant o ysgolion uwchradd yn y categorïau gwyrdd a melyn bellach. Mae'r cynnydd hwn ers y llynedd yn parhau'r duedd a welwyd ers 2015\.
* Gwelwyd cynnydd bach iawn yn y gyfran o ysgolion coch \- y rheini y nodir bod angen y cymorth mwyaf arnynt. Gwelwyd cynnydd o 0\.4 pwynt canran yn y sector cynradd a 2\.9 pwynt canran yn y sector uwchradd.
* Mae 45 y cant o ysgolion arbennig wedi'u categoreiddio'n ysgolion gwyrdd, sef y categori o ysgolion y mae angen y gefnogaeth leiaf arnynt. Nid oes un ysgol arbennig yn y categori coch, sef y rheini y mae angen y gefnogaeth fwyaf arnynt.

 Dywedodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Addysg, Kirsty Williams: 

 
> "Dwi'n hapus i weld bod mwy o ysgolion yn y categorïau gwyrdd a melyn erbyn hyn, sy'n parhau'r duedd rydyn ni wedi bod yn ei gweld dros y blynyddoedd diwethaf. 
> 
>  "Mae rôl allweddol gan yr ysgolion hyn wrth helpu ysgolion eraill i wella drwy rannu eu harbenigedd, eu sgiliau a'u harferion da. 
> 
>  "Ym mis Medi, fe gyhoeddais i y bydden ni, er mwyn codi safonau ysgolion ymhellach, yn gwneud newidiadau i'r system categoreiddio ysgolion, yn dilyn cyngor gan y Sefydliad ar gyfer Cydweithrediad a Datblygiad Economaidd (OECD). 
> 
>  "Yn ogystal ag ystyried amrywiaeth lawer ehangach o ffactorau am allu ysgol i wella, mae'r categorïau nawr yn rhoi mwy o bwyslais ar drafodaethau am sut y gallai'r ysgol wella \- gan arwain at raglen o gymorth, her ac ymyriadau sydd wedi'u teilwra'n benodol i'r ysgol honno. 
> 
>  "Dwi'n hyderus bod y newidiadau rydyn ni wedi'u gwneud i'r broses gategoreiddio o fudd i'r disgyblion ac y byddan nhw'n help i sicrhau bod ysgolion yn cael y cymorth iawn ar yr adeg iawn."
