Fis Rhagfyr diwethaf, gofynnais i Banel Annibynnol dan arweiniad yr Athro Mick Waters gyda chefnogaeth yr Athro Melanie Jones a Syr Alasdair Macdonald gynnal adolygiad annibynnol o Gyflog ac Amodau Athrawon Ysgol ac i awgrymu cynigion a allai gefnogi’n diwygiadau addysg unwaith y bydd Cymru’n ysgwyddo cyfrifoldeb am y maes hwn o 30 Medi 2018\.  
  
Mae’r Panel wedi cyhoeddi ei adroddiad yn sgil yr adolygiad i’w ystyried gan Weinidogion Cymru, ein partneriaid mewn awdurdodau lleol, y proffesiwn a phawb sydd â buddiant ym myd addysg Cymru.    
  
Mae ysgwyddo cyfrifoldeb am gyflog ac amodau athrawon yn gam pwysig iawn i’n gwlad a’n system addysg. Nid yw system Lloegr yn briodol na pherthnasol mwyach nac o fantais i’r proffesiwn yma.  
  
Rwy’n cytuno gyda Mick, Melanie ac Alasdair bod teitl yr adroddiad, ‘Addysgu: proffesiwn gwerthfawr’, yn dangos y rolau allweddol sydd gan athrawon a phenaethiaid i sicrhau'r cyfleoedd gorau mewn bywyd i’n plant a’n pobl ifanc. Byddwn ond yn gallu cyflawni hyn gyda system sy’n seiliedig ar werthoedd tegwch a rhagoriaeth ac ymrwymiad i addysg gwasanaeth cyhoeddus cynhwysol. Mae hyn yn allweddol i gefnogi a chryfhau’r proffesiwn addysgu.  
  
Hoffwn ddiolch i Mick, Melanie ac Alasdair am eu gweledigaeth, eu huchelgais a’u  gwreiddioldeb wrth lunio’r set gynhwysfawr iawn o argymhellion; pob un yn rhoi ystyriaeth benodol i anghenion Cymru a’r proffesiwn yma.  
  
Byddaf nawr yn ystyried y cynigion yn fanwl ac yn gwneud datganiad pellach maes o law.  
  
Rwyf hefyd am adeiladu ar drafodaethau blaenorol a chyfredol gydag undebau a phartneriaid eraill, i sicrhau bod yna system briodol ar gyfer pennu’r argymhellion hynny sy’n effeithio’n uniongyrchol ar gyflog ac amodau athrawon.  
  
Drwy gydweithio fel hyn gallwn ddarparu system gynaliadwy sy’n cefnogi’n hathrawon ac yn codi safonau i bawb.  
  
Mae’n gyfle rhy dda i’w golli.

Translation:


 
Last December I tasked an Independent Panel led by Professor Mick Waters and supported by Professor Melanie Jones and Sir Alasdair Macdonald to carry out an independent review of School Teachers’ Pay and Conditions and to suggest proposals that could support our education reforms once Wales assumes responsibility for this area from 30th September 2018\.  

  

The Panel has published their report arising from the review for consideration by Welsh Ministers, our partners in local authorities, the profession and everyone who has a vested interest in education in Wales.    

  

Taking over responsibility for teachers’ pay and conditions is an incredibly important step for our country and our education system. The English system is no longer appropriate, relevant or to the advantage of the profession here.  

  

I agree with Mick, Melanie and Alasdair that the title of the report, ‘Teaching: a valued profession’, demonstrates the vital roles that teachers and head teachers have in ensuring the best life chances for our children and young people. We will only achieve this if we have a system that is based on the values of equity and excellence and a commitment to inclusive, public service education. This is fundamental to supporting and strengthening the teaching profession.  

  

I want to thank Mick, Melanie and Alasdair for the vision, ambition and originality they have shown in this very comprehensive set of recommendations; each one specifically considering the needs of Wales and the profession here.  

  

I will now consider the proposals in detail and make a further statement in due course.  

I also want to build on previous and ongoing dialogue with unions and other partners, to ensure an appropriate system is in place to determine those recommendations that impact directly on teachers’ pay and conditions.  

  

I know that by working together in this way we will deliver a sustainable system that supports our teachers and raises standards for all.  

  

It’s an opportunity that cannot be missed.
