On 9 July 2012, I announced a review of the Welsh for Adults programme to consider how to improve the provision and delivery structures. The main objective is to review the provision of Welsh for Adults in terms of learner attainment, curriculum content, delivery structures and value for money. The Group will be required to report to me by June 2013 and provide recommendations on the way forward.


On 9 July 2012, I announced that Dr Haydn Edwards, former Principal of Coleg Menai, has agreed to chair the Group. I am now in a position to announce the other members of the Group. I am pleased that the following have agreed to be members of the Group:


* Gareth Jones: Former Director of Education, Ceredigion
* Ashok Ahir: Runner\-up of the learner of the year competition and Chief Executive of Mela\-Media
* Rhian Huws Williams: Chief Executive of Care Council for Wales
* Merfyn Morgan: Former Head of Vocational Qualifications Standards and Sector Qualifications Strategy at the Welsh Government
* Dr Christine Jones: Head of School of Welsh, University of Wales Trinity Saint David
* Dr Eleri Wyn Williams: Former Head of Education and Learning, BBC Wales
* Meic Raymant: Head of Welsh Language Services Department, North Wales Police


The Group will be asked to consider:


* how best to develop learners' Welsh language skills so that they are able to use the language in the workplace, community and with their families, including:
	+ is the current curriculum suitable?
	+ what are the requirements in terms of course books / teaching and learning materials?
	+ what are the opportunities for increasing the use of e\-learning within Welsh for Adults?
	+ what are the opportunities for increasing informal learning within Welsh for Adults?
	+ what are the training requirements for the workforce?


* the options for the future structure of Welsh for Adults development and delivery, including:
	+ is the current model achieving the objectives of the Welsh Government?
	+ is the balance of provision right?
	+ can the resources be used more effectively?
	+ how to address workforce planning issues to ensure the future capacity to provide quality Welsh for Adults provision;


* the relationship with private sector providers; and


* whether qualifications (currently available and/or other possible forms of accreditation/assessment) are a lever or a barrier with regard to developing transferable Welsh\-language skills.


This statement is being issued during recess in order to keep members informed. Should members wish me to make a further statement or to answer questions on this when the Assembly returns I would be happy to do so.

Ar 9 Gorffennaf 2012, cyhoeddais adolygiad o’r rhaglen Cymraeg i Oedolion i ystyried sut y gellir gwella darpariaeth a strwythurau Cymraeg i Oedolion. Y prif nod fydd adolygu darpariaeth Cymraeg i Oedolion yn nhermau cyrhaeddiad dysgwyr, cynnwys cwricwlaidd, strwythurau darparu a gwerth am arian. Bydd gofyn i’r Grŵp adrodd i mi erbyn mis Mehefin 2013 a darparu argymhellion ar y ffordd ymlaen.  

Hefyd, ar 9 Gorffennaf 2012, cyhoeddais fod Dr Haydn Edwards, cyn\-Bennaeth Coleg Menai, wedi cytuno i gadeirio’r Grwp. Rwyf bellach yn falch bod modd i mi gyhoeddi aelodau eraill y Grwp. Rwy’n falch bod y canlynol wedi cytuno i fod yn aelodau o’r Grwp:

* Gareth Jones: cyn\-Gyfarwyddwr Addysg, Ceredigion
* Ashok Ahir: ymgeisydd yn rownd derfynol dysgwr y flwyddyn a Phrif Weithredwr Mela\-Media
* Rhian Huws Williams: Prif Weithredwr Cyngor Gofal Cymru
* Merfyn Morgan: Cyn\-bennaeth Safonau Galwedigaethol Cenedlaethol a Strategaeth Cymwysterau Sector, Llywodraeth Cymru
* Dr Christine Jones: Pennaeth Ysgol y Gymraeg, Prifysgol Cymru y Drindod Dewi Sant
* Dr Eleri Wyn Williams: Cyn\-bennaeth Addysg a Dysgu, BBC Cymru
* Meic Raymant: Pennaeth yr Adran Gwasanaethau Iaith Gymraeg, Heddlu Gogledd Cymru

Bydd gofyn i’r Grŵp ystyried:* y dull gorau o ddatblygu sgiliau iaith Gymraeg dysgwyr er mwyn iddynt allu defnyddio’r iaith yn y gweithle, y gymuned a gyda’u teuluoedd, gan gynnwys:
+ ydy’r cwricwlwm cyfredol yn addas?
+ beth yw’r gofynion o ran llyfrau cwrs / adnoddau dysgu ac addysgu?
+ beth yw’r cyfleoedd i gynyddu defnydd o e\-ddysgu o fewn Cymraeg i Oedolion?
+ beth yw’r cyfleoedd ar gyfer cynyddu dysgu anffurfiol o fewn Cymraeg i Oedolion?
+ beth yw’r gofynion hyfforddi ar gyfer y gweithlu?
* yr opsiynau ar gyfer strwythur datblygu a darparu Cymraeg i Oedolion yn y dyfodol, gan gynnwys:
+ ydy’r model cyfredol yn cyflawni amcanion Llywodraeth Cymru?
+ ydy cydbwysedd y ddarpariaeth yn iawn?
+ a oes cyfleoedd i ddefnyddio’r adnoddau yn fwy effeithiol?
+ sut i fynd i’r afael â materion yn ymwneud â chynllunio’r gweithlu er mwyn sicrhau capasiti i ddarparu cyrsiau Cymraeg i Oedolion o ansawdd yn y dyfodol;
* y berthynas gyda darparwyr yn y sector breifat; a
* p’un a yw’r cymwysterau (sydd ar gael ar hyn o bryd a/neu ddulliau eraill o achredu/asesu) yn fodd o hwyluso neu yn rhwystr i ddatblygu sgiliau iaith Gymraeg trosglwyddadwy.

Caiff y datganiad ei gyhoeddi yn ystod y toriad er mwyn rhoi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i aelodau. Os bydd aelodau eisiau i mi wneud datganiad pellach neu ateb cwestiynau ynglŷn â hyn pan fydd y Cynulliad yn dychwelyd, byddwn yn hapus i wneud hynny.
