From September this year, all schools will be teaching the Curriculum for Wales. And from 2026, all learners in our schools will be learning under the new curriculum.


We want a Welsh education system that supports all children and young people through their individual pathways to achieve their aspirations as they progress towards the Four Purposes. Whatever their next step in education or employment, the Curriculum for Wales is designed to ensure learners leave compulsory education with the knowledge, skills and experiences they need to succeed; and for their achievements and progression to be recognised. 


Qualifications are a crucial element of this. Qualifications Wales are reforming the entire 14\-16 year old qualifications landscape. A consultation was held in Autumn 2022 on reformed GCSEs, made in Wales, to align with the new curriculum. On Tuesday 14 March, Qualifications Wales launched a consultation on the Full 14\-16 Qualifications Offer – including Skills, Pre\-vocational, and Foundation\-level qualifications – designed to enable a more comprehensive, cohesive offer for young people in Wales.


As we reform qualifications, I am keen to ensure that all learners reach their potential in literacy and numeracy through the most suitable qualifications in Welsh, English and Maths. We expect schools’ wider curriculum offer to continue to provide learners with a good choice of courses and qualifications from across the six Areas of Learning and Experience, as well as opportunities for learners to obtain qualifications that demonstrate their wider skills and experiences. This will build on existing good practice in schools under the Welsh Baccalaureate, and the Welsh Government will work with Qualifications Wales on its evolution under the Curriculum for Wales.


14–16\-year\-old learners under the Curriculum for Wales will also continue to benefit from those mandatory parts of the curriculum that do not necessarily lead to qualifications, but which contribute to their development, success and onward progression. This includes relationships and sexuality education; religion, values and ethics; mandatory cross\-curricular skills; and continuing learning in each Area of Learning and Experience. We must also recognise wider experiences that contribute to a learner achieving the four purposes. 


As learners approach year 10, schools will continue to play a vital role in helping young people to identify their goals and aspirations so that they can progress along their chosen pathway: choices about qualifications and courses will be an important part of this. They must be supported by high quality careers and work\-related learning and experiences, a mandatory part of the new curriculum, which offers a critical opportunity to build relationships across schools, further education and employers, to help young people to move confidently to their next step. 


As we move forward, we will work with schools to support them in achieving this vision for learners through their curriculum offer at 14\-16, including qualifications, to help provide learners with a seamless transition into the next stage of their education, employment or training. We will also put our commitment to the importance of individual learning journeys, underpinned by learners’ wider skills, experiences and achievements, at the centre, as we develop a new school improvement and information landscape.

O fis Medi eleni, bydd pob ysgol yn addysgu'r Cwricwlwm i Gymru. Ac o 2026 ymlaen, bydd pob dysgwr yn ein hysgolion yn dysgu o dan y cwricwlwm newydd.


Rydym am weld system addysg yng Nghymru sy'n cefnogi pob plentyn a pherson ifanc trwy eu llwybrau unigol i gyflawni eu dyheadau wrth iddynt wneud cynnydd tuag at y Pedwar Diben. Beth bynnag fo’u cam nesaf mewn addysg neu gyflogaeth, nod y Cwricwlwm i Gymru yw sicrhau bod dysgwyr yn gadael addysg orfodol gyda'r wybodaeth, y sgiliau a'r profiadau sydd eu hangen arnynt i lwyddo; a bod eu cyflawniadau a’u cynnydd yn cael eu cydnabod. 


Mae cymwysterau yn elfen hanfodol o hyn. Mae Cymwysterau Cymru yn diwygio'r maes cyfan o gymwysterau 14\-16 oed. Cynhaliwyd ymgynghoriad yn hydref 2022 ar gymwysterau TGAU diwygiedig, a wnaed yng Nghymru, i gyd\-fynd â'r cwricwlwm newydd. Ar 14 Mawrth 2023, mae Cymwysterau Cymru wedi lansio ymgynghoriad ar y Cynnig Llawn o Gymwysterau 14\-16 – gan gynnwys cymwysterau Sgiliau, Cyn\-alwedigaethol a lefel Sylfaen – a luniwyd er mwyn darparu cynnig mwy cynhwysfawr a chydlynus i bobl ifanc yng Nghymru.


Wrth i ni ddiwygio cymwysterau, rwy'n awyddus i sicrhau bod pob dysgwr yn cyrraedd ei botensial mewn llythrennedd a rhifedd drwy'r cymwysterau mwyaf addas yn y Gymraeg, Saesneg a Mathemateg. Rydym yn disgwyl i gwricwlwm ehangach ysgolion barhau i roi dewis da o gyrsiau a chymwysterau i ddysgwyr o'r chwe Maes Dysgu a Phrofiad, yn ogystal â chyfleoedd i ddysgwyr gael cymwysterau sy'n dangos eu sgiliau a'u profiadau ehangach. Bydd hyn yn adeiladu ar arfer da sy'n bodoli eisoes mewn ysgolion o dan Fagloriaeth Cymru, a bydd Llywodraeth Cymru'n gweithio gyda Cymwysterau Cymru ar ei esblygiad o dan y Cwricwlwm i Gymru.


O dan y Cwricwlwm i Gymru, bydd dysgwyr 14–16 oed hefyd yn parhau i elwa ar y rhannau gorfodol hynny o'r cwricwlwm nad ydynt o reidrwydd yn arwain at gymwysterau, ond sy'n cyfrannu at eu datblygiad, eu llwyddiant a’u camau nesaf. Mae hyn yn cynnwys addysg cydberthynas a rhywioldeb; crefydd, gwerthoedd a moeseg; sgiliau trawsgwricwlaidd gorfodol; a dysgu parhaus ym mhob Maes Dysgu a Phrofiad. Mae'n rhaid inni hefyd gydnabod profiadau ehangach sy’n helpu dysgwr i gyflawni'r pedwar diben. 


Wrth i ddysgwyr agosáu at flwyddyn 10, bydd ysgolion yn parhau i chwarae rhan hanfodol o ran helpu pobl ifanc i nodi eu nodau a'u dyheadau fel y gallant symud ymlaen ar hyd y llwybr o'u dewis. Bydd dewisiadau ynghylch cymwysterau a chyrsiau yn rhan bwysig o hyn. Mae'n rhaid iddynt gael eu cefnogi gan addysg gyrfaoedd a phrofiadau sy’n gysylltiedig â byd gwaith o ansawdd uchel, sy’n rhan orfodol o'r cwricwlwm newydd, sydd yn cynnig cyfle hollbwysig i ddatblygu perthnasoedd ar draws ysgolion, addysg bellach a chyflogwyr er mwyn helpu pobl ifanc i symud yn hyderus i'w cam nesaf. 


Wrth i ni symud ymlaen, byddwn yn gweithio gydag ysgolion i'w cefnogi i gyflawni'r weledigaeth hon ar gyfer dysgwyr drwy eu cwricwlwm 14\-16, gan gynnwys cymwysterau, er mwyn helpu dysgwyr i symud ymlaen yn ddi\-dor i gam nesaf eu haddysg, cyflogaeth neu hyfforddiant. Byddwn hefyd yn rhoi ein hymrwymiad i bwysigrwydd teithiau dysgu unigol, a ategir gan sgiliau, profiadau a chyflawniadau ehangach dysgwyr, wrth wraidd ein gwaith wrth i ni ddatblygu tirwedd newydd ar gyfer gwella ysgolion a’r sylfaen wybodaeth.
