Heddiw (dydd Sul 7 Chwefror 2021\) mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cyhoeddi £29 miliwn ychwanegol i golegau, gan gynnwys £26\.5 miliwn i gefnogi dysgwyr ar raglenni dysgu galwedigaethol.


Bydd y cyllid yn cael ei ddefnyddio i gefnogi dysgwyr i gwblhau eu cymwysterau galwedigaethol yn ystod y flwyddyn academaidd hon, drwy ddarparu cymorth ychwanegol a dileu rhwystrau a allai atal eu cwblhau.


Hefyd bydd £2\.5 miliwn ychwanegol yn cefnogi colegau a darparwyr hyfforddiant preifat Cymru i ddarparu cymorth Iechyd Meddwl ychwanegol i gydnabod y problemau lles y meddwl cynyddol o ganlyniad i'r pandemig.


Mae'r cyllid yn ychwanegol at y £23 miliwn a gyhoeddwyd gan Lywodraeth Cymru i gefnogi colegau ym mis Gorffennaf.


Ddydd Gwener (5 Chwefror), cyhoeddwyd y bydd rhai dysgwyr galwedigaethol yn dychwelyd i'r coleg ar ôl y seibiant hanner tymor. Bydd dysgwyr sy'n astudio cymwysterau "trwydded i ymarfer", gan gynnwys prentisiaid, yn y grŵp blaenoriaeth cyntaf i ddychwelyd, fel eu bod yn gallu cael mynediad i’r cyfleusterau a'r offer sy’n angenrheidiol ar gyfer eu cyrsiau.


Dywedodd Kirsty Williams, y Gweinidog Addysg:



> Mae tua 50,000 o ddysgwyr yng Nghymru yn dilyn cymwysterau galwedigaethol ar hyn o bryd. Bydd y cymorth hwn yn helpu ein colegau i ddarparu mwy fyth o gefnogaeth i helpu'r dysgwyr hynny i ennill y cymwysterau maen nhw wedi gweithio mor galed tuag atynt.



> Mae'n bwysig ein bod ni’n cymryd camau i gefnogi myfyrwyr y flwyddyn hon, fel eu bod yn gallu mynd ymlaen i gam nesaf eu haddysg, hyfforddiant neu waith fel roeddent wedi cynllunio. Rydym yn gweithio gyda cholegau i gynllunio dull diogel o ddychwelyd, gan gadw pellter cymdeithasol, i'r myfyrwyr galwedigaethol sydd ei angen fwyaf.


Dywedodd Rebecca Evans, y Gweinidog Cyllid a’r Trefnydd:



> Fel Llywodraeth, rydym eisiau sicrhau nad oes neb yn cael ei adael ar ôl oherwydd y pandemig. Dyma enghraifft arall o'r cyllid rydym wedi'i gyhoeddi eleni i gefnogi pobl ifanc ar bob cam o'u siwrnai addysg.

The Welsh Government has today (Sunday 7 February 2021\) announced an extra £29 million for colleges, including £26\.5 million to support learners on vocational learning programmes.


The funding will be used to support learners in completing their vocational qualifications this academic year, by providing additional support and removing barriers that may prevent completion.


An extra £2\.5 million will also support Welsh colleges and private training providers provide additional mental health support in recognition of the increased mental wellness issues as a result of the pandemic.


The funding is in addition to £23 million announced by the Welsh Government to support colleges in July.


On Friday (5 February), it was announced that some vocational learners will return to college after the half term break. Learners studying “licence to practice” qualifications, including apprentices, will be in the first priority group to return, so that they can access the facilities and equipment necessary for their courses.


Kirsty Williams, the Education Minister, said:



> There are around 50,000 learners in Wales currently undertaking vocational qualifications. This support will help our colleges provide even greater support to help those learners get the qualifications they’ve worked so hard for. 
> 
> 
> It’s important we take action to support this year’s students, so they can go on to their next stage of education, training or work as they had planned. We are working with colleges to plan a safe, socially distanced return for the vocational students who need it most.


Rebecca Evans, the Finance Minister and Trefnydd, said:



> As a Government, we want to ensure nobody is left behind due to the pandemic. This is another example of the funding we’ve announced this year to support young people at all stages of their education journey.
