Cychwynnodd Prosiect Dechrau Dysgu ym mis Medi 2012, gyda chefnogaeth Llywodraeth Cymru. Ei fwriad yw codi safon sgiliau oedolion a'u cyrhaeddiadau addysgol drwy ei gwneud yn rhwydd i bawb gael dysgu yn y gymuned. 

 Mae cyrsiau a gweithdai achrededig a rhai sydd heb eu hachredu'n cael eu cyflwyno yn yr ysgol ac mewn lleoliadau cymunedol eraill. Mae’r rhain wedi’u llunio'n benodol i gael gwared ar rwystrau, fel bod pobl yn y gymuned yn gallu magu'r hyder a'r sgiliau sydd eu hangen i chwilio am waith.

 Mae'r ddarpariaeth wedi cael ei chynllunio hefyd i ddiwallu amrywiaeth eang o anghenion dysgwyr, o sgiliau sylfaenol a chyrsiau TGCh i wahanol gyrsiau achrededig gan gynnwys gradd sylfaen mewn Addysg a Chynhwysiant Cymdeithasol. 

 Yn ystod yr ymweliad, cafodd y Gweinidog gyfle i gwrdd â rhai o'r oedolion sydd wedi elwa ar y prosiect a chlywodd eu hanesion personol ynghylch sut y mae wedi helpu i weddnewid eu bywydau, dysgu sgiliau newydd a manteisio ar gyfleoedd newydd o ran gwaith.

 Wedi'r ymweliad, dywedodd y Gweinidog : "Mae'r prosiect hwn yn enghraifft wych o fenter ddysgu sy'n deillio o'r gymuned, ac sydd wedi ei chynllunio gan y gymuned ar gyfer eu cymuned eu hunain a dw i'n canmol Ysgol Gynradd Cil\-maen am ei rhan allweddol yn gwaith.

 
> "Mae'n amlwg bod yr ysgol yn selog dros ddysgu gydol oes ac wedi ymroi i feithrin ethos o weithio a dysgu gyda'i gilydd, wedi ei seilio ar barch gan oedolion a phlant, y naill i'r llall. 
> 
>  "Roedd clywed gan y rhai sydd wedi elwa ar y prosiect yn ysbrydoliaeth i mi, ynghyd â gweld drosof fy hun yr effaith gadarnhaol y mae wedi'i chael ar eu bywydau a'u hyder."

Started in September 2012 with support from the Welsh Government, the Launch Project aims to raise adults’ skills standards and education attainment within the community by making learning accessible to everyone.

 Both accredited and non\-accredited courses and workshops are delivered at the school and other community venues and have been specifically designed to remove barriers so that people in the community can gain the confidence and skills needed to seek employment.

 The provision has also been designed to cater for a wide range of learner needs, from basic skills and IT courses to various accredited courses including a foundation degree in Education and Social Inclusion. 

 During the visit the Minister met with some of the adult learners who have benefitted from the project and heard their personal accounts about how it has helped them to turn their lives around, gain new skills and seize new employment opportunities.

 Speaking after the visit, Minister said: “This project is a great example of a community\-driven learning initiative that has been designed by the community for the community and I applaud Monkton Primary School for its pivotal role in that.

 
> “The school is clearly committed to lifelong learning and building an ethos of working and learning together, built on mutual respect between adults and children. 
> 
>  “It was also inspiring hearing from those who have benefitted from the project and seeing first hand the positive impact it has had on their lives and their confidence.”
