The awards were created to celebrate the commitment, dedication and hard work of teachers across Wales. Over a hundred nominations came in from pupils, colleagues and parents and now the best of the best has been shortlisted for an award.

Heddiw (8 Ebrill), mae 29 o weithwyr addysg proffesiynol o bob rhan o Gymru wedi’u henwi ar restr fer rownd derfynol Gwobrau Addysgu Proffesiynol Cymru.


Crëwyd y gwobrau tair mlynedd yn ôl, i ddathlu ymrwymiad, ymroddiad a gwaith caled athrawon ledled Cymru. Derbyniwyd dros gant o enwebiadau gan ddisgyblion, cydweithwyr a rhieni a nawr mae’r gorau oll wedi’u cynnwys ar restr fer am wobr. 


Cyhoeddir yr enillwyr o bob un o’r deg categori, gan gynnwys Athro Newydd Eithriadol a Phennaeth y Flwyddyn, mewn seremoni arbennig yn Neuadd Sychdyn ym mis Mai. 


Bydd y wobr Athro Newydd Eithriadol yn cydnabod athro sy’n arddangos brwdfrydedd a rhagoriaeth yn yr ystafell ddosbarth, gan hefyd ddangos sgiliau arwain cynnar a datblygiad proffesiynol parhaus. Bydd gwobr Pennaeth y Flwyddyn yn mynd i unigolyn sy’n rhagorol yn ei swydd, ac sy’n dangos y gallu i gysylltu’r ysgol â’r gymuned ehangach a gwneud gwahaniaeth go iawn i bob disgybl. 


Dywedodd y Gweinidog Addysg, Kirsty Williams: 



> “Mae safon yr enwebiadau bob amser yn arbennig, ac mae’r grŵp sydd wedi cyrraedd y rownd derfynol eleni yn ysbrydoledig ac wedi creu cryn argraff arnaf.  
> 
> 
>  “Rhan o’n cenhadaeth genedlaethol yw i godi safonau addysg a gwneud pawb yn falch o astudio yng Nghymru. Wrth wraidd y system mae’r gweithwyr addysgu proffesiynol. 
> 
> 
>  “Bob dydd mae athrawon, staff cymorth a staff busnes yn gwneud gwahaniaeth go iawn i fywydau ein pobl ifanc ac mae’n hanfodol ein bod yn eu cydnabod am eu cyfraniadau. 
> 
> 
>  “Mae’r unigolion sydd yn y rownd derfynol yn glod i’r proffesiwn. Dylai pob un ohonynt fod yn falch iawn o’i hun ac rwy’n edrych ymlaen yn fawr at gwrdd â phawb ym mis Mai i ddathlu eu gwaith caled.”
