Aeth y Gweinidog Plant, Huw Irranca\-Davies i Ysgol Gynradd Millbrook ym Metws i weld drosto'i hun y gwaith mae'r ysgol wedi'i wneud yn rhan o fenter Llywodraeth Cymru, sef Plant yn Gyntaf.

Diben Plant yn Gyntaf yw dwyn ynghyd sefydliadau i gydweithio â'i gilydd i wella deilliannau i blant a phobl ifanc yn seiliedig ar 'le' penodol.  Mae ffocws strategol hirdymor wrthi'n cael ei ddatblygu gyda chymunedau i fynd i'r afael â materion lleol, i leihau'r anghydraddoldeb rhwng y plant o'u cymharu â phlant mewn llefydd sydd â mwy o fanteision yn gymdeithasol, a gwella eu cyfleoedd mewn bywyd.  

Ym Metws, y 'lle' hwnnw yw Ysgol Gynradd Millbrook. Mae'r ysgol yn gweithio fel canolbwynt ar gyfer ardal arloesi Plant yn Gyntaf. Mae'r ysgol wedi sefydlu ei hun fel cymuned sy'n dysgu ar gyfer plant ac mae ganddi hanes o weithio mewn partneriaeth â gwasanaethau statudol ac anstatudol i wella deilliannau i blant.  

Mae llawer o wasanaethau wedi'u lleoli ar safle'r ysgol gan gynnwys gweithwyr cymdeithasol Prevent, Heddlu Gwent, yn ogystal â gwasanaethau sy'n cael eu darparu o dan raglenni Llywodraeth Cymru sef Dechrau'n Deg a Theuluoedd yn Gyntaf. 

Dywedodd Huw Irranca\-Davies, y Gweinidog Plant:


> "Roedd hi'n fraint cael ymweld ag Ysgol Gynradd Millbrook heddiw.
> 
> "Fel y Gweinidog Plant, rwyf am sicrhau bod pob plentyn yng Nghymru yn cael y dechreuad gorau posib mewn bywyd. Tra bo addysg yn gwbl hanfodol i ddatblygiad plentyn, yn aml mae angen gwasanaethau arnyn nhw sy'n mynd ymhell y tu hwnt i'r ystafell ddosbarth. 
> 
> "Dyna'r rheswm pam yr aeth Llywodraeth Cymru ati i ddatblygu Plant yn Gyntaf. Y diben yw rhoi yn eu lle, mewn un lle, y gwasanaethau hynny sydd eu hangen ar blant, eu teuluoedd a'r gymuned ehangach, i lwyddo. 
> 
> "Drwy roi plant yn gyntaf, mae Ysgol Gynradd Millbrook yn arwain y ffordd drwy sicrhau bod disgyblion yn datblygu sgiliau gydol oes a bod ganddyn nhw'r sgiliau i'w galluogi i chwarae eu rhan yn nyfodol Cymru."

Minister for Children, Huw Irranca\-Davies visited Millbrook Primary School in Bettws to see first\-hand the work the school is undertaking as part of the Welsh Government’s Children First initiative.


Children First brings together organisations to work collaboratively to improve outcomes for children and young people based around a ‘place’. A long\-term strategic focus is developed with communities to address local issues, to reduce the inequalities faced by the children, compared with children in more socially advantaged places, and improve their life chances.  


In Bettws, that ‘place’ is Millbrook Primary School. The school acts as the hub for the Children First Pioneer area. The school has established itself as a children’s learning community and has a history of working in partnership with other statutory and non\-statutory services to deliver better outcomes for children.  


A number of services are co\-located on the school site, including Prevent social workers, Gwent Police, as well as services which are delivered under the Welsh Government’s Flying Start and Families First programmes. 


Minister for Children, Huw Irranca\-Davies said:



> “It was a real privilege to visit Millbrook Primary School today.
> 
> 
> “As Minister for Children, I want to ensure every child in Wales is given the very best start in life. Whilst education is absolutely crucial to a child’s development, they often need services that go far beyond the classroom.
> 
> 
> “That’s why the Welsh Government has developed Children First. It’s about putting in place, in one place, the services children, their families and the wider community need to succeed. 
> 
> 
> “By putting children first, Millbrook Primary School are leading the way in ensuring pupils develop life\-long learning skills and are equipped to reach their full potential, and are able to play their part in the Wales of the future.”
