The pack, which was first tested with pupils there, will help inform key stage 3 and 4 students about organ donation, encouraging them to discuss the subject with their friends and families.   
  
The lesson guide is the result of collaboration between the Welsh Government and NHS Blood and Transplant, and contains a lesson plan, activities, short case study films and guidance for teachers.  
  
The pack aims to encourage pupils to:  


* Describe how organ donation saves and improves lives;
* Explain some of the reasons why people decide to become organ and tissue donors;
* Understand why it is important to join the NHS Organ Donor Register;
* Understand how to talk to people about organ and tissue donation;
* Understand what options about donating they must consider under the system in Wales;
* Understand the decision to donate is their own, and the importance of sharing that decision.

  
In 2015 Wales was the first country in the UK to move to a soft opt\-out system of consent to organ donation. The latest statistics reveal a 72% consent rate and approximately 24\.3 donors per million population, putting Wales at the top of the list in the UK.   
  
Statistics also show that 39% of the Welsh population have registered to opt\-in to donate their organs following their death. However, if individuals don’t tell their family of their decision to donate, the family may not honour that decision and over\-ride the organ donor registration or not support deemed consent.  
  
In 2016\-17 data published by NHS Blood and Transplant showed there were 21 cases in Wales where families either overrode their relatives’ decisions to donate organs, or didn’t support the deemed consent.  
  
With an average of 3\.1 organs retrieved per donor in Wales in 2016\-17, this could have resulted in as many as 65 additional transplants.   
  
The Chief Medical Officer for Wales, Dr Frank Atherton said:   
  



> “Encouraging an open and honest discussion about organ donation is key to increasing the number of people who consent to donating their organs, and more importantly, that families understand and respect their loved one’s wishes.
> 
> “It’s important that children and young people are given as much information as possible, in a sensitive and engaging way, so they can make an informed decision about organ donation and encouraging their families to have the chat at home.  
> 
> To make sure the pack worked in practice, it was piloted at Penyrheol Comprehensive school by PSE Coordinator Hayley Steel before being rolled out. She said: 
> 
> “Having the chance to test something as important as the school pack on organ donation was a huge honour. It’s been good to see the feedback from our session help shape the pack to what it is today. 
> 
> “The pupils responded so well to the activities; we shouldn’t forget that young people have the capacity to understand and discuss these huge life questions. I believe it will benefit other schools across Wales, helping to break away from some of the stigma that surrounds discussing organ donation.”

  
Nadine Marshall, whose son Conner tragically died following an attack in 2015, features in one of the case study films. Nadine said:


> “I think it’s really important young people are listened to and given the opportunity to talk about organ donation at school and college. It’s also important people talk to their loved ones about it so families are aware of their decision, should they find themselves in that incredibly difficult situation. 
> 
> “Conner was only 16 when he made his decision to be an organ donor and I am grateful we had talked about it and were aware of how strongly he felt about being a donor.
> 
> “He has given an incredible gift and we were able to do what Conner would have wanted by supporting his decision.”

Mae’r adnodd hwn, a gafodd ei dreialu gyda'r disgyblion yno, yn rhoi’r cyfle i ddisgyblion cyfnodau allweddol 3 a 4 ddysgu ynghylch rhoi organau, gan eu hannog i drafod y pwnc gyda'u cyfeillion a'u teuluoedd.

Cafodd y pecyn ei lunio  wedi i Lywodraeth Cymru gydweithio â Gwaed a Thrawsblaniadau'r GIG, ac mae'n cynnwys cynllun gwers, gweithgareddau, ffilmiau astudiaethau achos byr, a chanllawiau i athrawon.    


Ei nod yw sicrhau bod disgyblion yn deall:

* Sut mae rhoi organau yn arbed bywydau ac yn eu gwella;
* Rhai o'r rhesymau pam mae pobl yn penderfynu bod yn rhoddwyr organau a meinwe;
* Pam mae'n bwysig ymuno â Chofrestr Rhoddwyr Organau y Gwasanaeth Iechyd Gwladol;
* Sut i siarad â phobl ynghylch rhoi organau a meinwe;
* Pa opsiynau rhoi organau y mae'n rhaid eu hystyried o dan y system yng Nghymru;
* Pwysigrwydd cofio mai eu penderfyniad nhw fel unigolion yw rhoi organau ai peidio, a phwysigrwydd rhannu'r penderfyniad hwnnw ag eraill.

  
  
Yn 2015, Cymru oedd y wlad gyntaf yn y Deyrnas Unedig i gyflwyno system feddal o optio allan ar gyfer cydsynio i roi organau. Dengys yr ystadegau diweddaraf mai 72% yw’r gyfradd gydsynio, gyda thua 24\.3 o roddwyr fesul miliwn o'r boblogaeth, sy'n gosod Cymru ar frig y rhestr yn y DU.   
  
Dengys yr ystadegau hefyd fod 39% o boblogaeth Cymru wedi cofrestru i optio i mewn i roi organau wedi iddynt farw. Fodd bynnag, os nad yw’r unigolyn yn trafod ei benderfyniad i roi organau â'i anwyliaid, mae perygl y bydd y teulu yn peidio ag anrhydeddu ei benderfyniad ac yn anwybyddu'r gofrestr rhoddwyr organau neu wrthwynebu cydsyniad tybiedig.  
  
Yn 2016\-17, roedd data a gyhoeddwyd gan Gwaed a Thrawsblaniadau'r GIG yn dangos bod 21 o achosion yng Nghymru lle'r oedd teuluoedd naill ai wedi mynd yn groes i benderfyniad eu perthynas i roi organau, neu wedi gwrthod derbyn y cydsyniad tybiedig.  
  
O ystyried y cafodd 3\.1 o organau eu rhoi ar gyfartaledd gan bob rhoddwr yng Nghymru yn 2016\-17, gallai'r achosion hynny fod wedi golygu cynifer â 65 o drawsblaniadau eraill.   
  
Dywedodd Prif Swyddog Meddygol Cymru,  Dr Frank Atherton:   
  



> "Mae annog pobl i drafod rhoi organau yn agored ac yn onest yn allweddol i sicrhau bod mwy o bobl yn cydsynio i roi eu horganau, ac yn bwysicach fyth, bod eu teuluoedd yn deall ac yn parchu eu dymuniad.
> 
> "Mae'n bwysig bod plant a phobl ifanc yn cael cymaint o wybodaeth â phosibl, mewn modd sensitif sy'n ennyn eu diddordeb, er mwyn iddyn nhw allu gwneud penderfyniad sy’n seiliedig ar y ffeithiau ynghylch rhoi organau a thrafod y penderfyniad hwnnw â'u teuluoedd."  
> 
> Er mwyn gwneud yn siŵr bod y pecyn yn ymarferol, cyn ei gyflwyno'n ehangach, cafodd ei dreialu yn Ysgol Gyfun Penyrheol gan y Cydgysylltydd Addysg Bersonol a Chymdeithasol, Hayley Steel. Dywedodd Hayley Steel:
> 
> "Roedd yn fraint enfawr cael y cyfle i dreialu rhywbeth mor bwysig â'r pecyn ysgol ar gyfer trafod rhoi organau. Mae wedi bod yn dda gweld yr adborth o'n sesiwn ni yn helpu i lunio'r pecyn fel ag y mae heddiw. 
> 
> "Roedd ymateb y disgyblion i'r gweithgareddau mor dda; mae'n bwysig peidio ag anghofio bod pobl ifanc yn gallu deall a thrafod cwestiynau mawr bywyd. Dw i'n credu y bydd y pecyn yn helpu ysgolion eraill ledled Cymru i oresgyn yr amharodrwydd i drafod rhoi organau yn agored."

  
Mae Nadine Marshall, a gollodd ei mab Conner mewn amgylchiadau trasig ar ôl i rywun ymosod arno yn 2015,  yn ymddangos yn un o’r ffilmiau astudiaeth achos. Dywedodd Nadine:  


> “Rwy’n meddwl ei bod hi’n bwysig iawn bod llais pobl ifanc yn cael ei glywed a’u bod nhw’n cael cyfle i siarad am roi organau yn yr ysgol a’r coleg. Mae’n bwysig hefyd bod unigolion yn siarad â’r rheini sydd agosaf atyn nhw fel bod eu teuluoedd yn ymwybodol o’u penderfyniad os byddan nhw’n cael eu rhoi mewn sefyllfa anodd iawn fel hon.   
> 
> “Dim ond 16 oed oedd Conner pan benderfynodd ef fod yn rhoddwr organau a dw i’n ddiolchgar ein bod ni wedi siarad am ei benderfyniad a’n bod ni’n gwybod pa mor gryf roedd e’n teimlo am fod yn rhoddwr organau. 
> 
> “Mae ef wedi rhoi rhodd werthfawr ac roedden ni wedi gallu gwireddu dymuniad Conner drwy gefnogi ei benderfyniad.”
