Seren is a network of regional hubs designed to support Wales’ brightest sixth formers achieve their academic potential and gain access to leading universities. Its aim is to increase representation at the Russell Group and Sutton Trust 30 group of universities. These represent the most selective research\-led universities in the UK. 

 The final hub, in the Vale of Glamorgan, is to be launched today (16th November) by the Minister for Lifelong Learning and the Welsh Language at an event at the Vale Hotel. 

 Over 2000 students have been selected to be part of one of 11 regional hubs and are able to benefit from: 

 * first hand access to leading universities talks, seminars and workshops delivered by lecturers, students and admissions experts
* the chance to work beyond the A level curriculum
* subject support from local teachers in their area
* a peer group of other students
* the latest information and advice about university applications.

 Minister for Lifelong Learning and Welsh Language, Alun Davies, said: 

 
> “The Seren Network has been established to help more Welsh students gain access to the UK’s leading universities, where they are currently under\-represented compared to the rest of the UK. 
> 
>  “We know that Welsh applicants to Oxford and Cambridge receive disproportionately fewer offers compared to other UK applicants, despite achieving similar GCSE and A level grades. 
> 
>  “These students are our experts and future leaders so it’s vital we develop a learning environment where they can really prosper. 
> 
>  “It’s fantastic to see so many leading universities are already engaged with Seren and are supporting delivery of the regional programmes. We are very grateful to them for their ongoing support.”

 Seren provides information, advice and guidance to students at a time when they have to make big decisions about their future. The network is there to reduce anxiety about the university application process and ensure Wales’ brightest students are being given the support needed to achieve their full potential.

Rhwydwaith o ganolfannau rhanbarthol yw Seren a’i nod yw helpu myfyrwyr chweched dosbarth disgleiriaf Cymru i gyflawni eu potensial academaidd a chael mynediad i brifysgolion blaenllaw. 

 Mae’r ganolfan olaf, ym Mro Morgannwg, i gael ei lansio heddiw (16 Tachwedd) gan Weinidog y Gymraeg a Dysgu Gydol Oes mewn digwyddiad yng Ngwesty’r Fro. Rydyn ni am gynyddu’r gynrychiolaeth yng Ngrwp Russell a’r Sutton Trust 30\. Dyma’r prifysgolion gorau yn y DU sy’n cael eu harwain ar sail ymchwil. 

 Mae dros 2000 o fyfyrwyr wedi’u dewis i fod yn rhan o un o’r 11 canolfan ranbarthol a gallant elwa ar: 

 * fynediad uniongyrchol i sgyrsiau, seminarau a gweithdai mewn prifysgolion blaenllaw gan ddarlithwyr, myfyrwyr ac arbenigwyr ar dderbyniadau myfyrwyr
* y cyfle i weithio y tu hwnt i gwricwlwm Safon Uwch
* cymorth pynciau gan athrawon lleol yn eu hardal
* grwp o fyfyrwyr eraill
* yr wybodaeth a’r cyngor diweddaraf am wneud cais i brifysgolion.

 Dywedodd Alun Davies, Gweinidog y Gymraeg a Dysgu Gydol Oes: 

 
> “Mae Rhwydwaith Seren wedi’i sefydlu i helpu mwy o fyfyrwyr Cymru i gael mynediad i’r prifysgolion mwyaf blaenllaw y DU lle nad ydyn nhw wedi’u cynrychioli’n ddigonol ar hyn o bryd, o gymharu â gweddill y DU. 
> 
>  “Rydyn ni’n gwybod bod nifer anghymesur lai o ymgeiswyr o Gymru i Rydychen a Chaergrawnt yn cael cynigion o gymharu ag ymgeiswyr eraill y DU, er eu bod yn cael graddau tebyg yn eu harholiadau TGAU a Safon Uwch. 
> 
>  “Y myfyrwyr hyn yw ein harbenigwyr a’n harweinwyr ar gyfer y dyfodol, felly mae’n hollbwysig ein bod ni’n datblygu amgylchedd dysgu lle gallan nhw ffynnu’n wirioneddol. 
> 
>  “Mae’n wych gweld bod cymaint o brifysgolion blaenllaw eisoes yn ymwneud â Seren ac yn helpu i gyflwyno’r rhaglenni rhanbarthol. Rydyn ni’n ddiolchgar iawn iddyn nhw am barhau i helpu.”

 Mae Seren yn rhoi gwybodaeth, cyngor a chanllawiau i fyfyrwyr ar adeg pan fo’n rhaid iddyn nhw wneud penderfyniadau mawr am eu dyfodol. Mae’r rhwydwaith yno i leihau pryder am y broses gais i brifysgolion ac i sicrhau bod myfyrwyr disgleiriaf Cymru yn cael y cymorth sydd ei angen er mwyn cyflawni eu potensial.
