English: It's now, I think, two years since the children's commissioner produced her follow-up report on wheelchair accessibility in schools in Wales, 'Full Lives: Equal Access', which identified a number of areas for improvement, some of which were strict duties under the Equality Act 2010, some of which were not. It found, for example, 'over-reliance on individual schools to plan for the needs of pupils with physical disabilities' and that only one of Wales's 22 councils had sought the views of young people when drafting their accessibility strategy. Amongst the things it said that needed to happen was consultation with children and young people and their families, which is a duty under the Equality Act 2010 and has to form part of the accessibility strategies and plans to make these meaningful and uphold the rights of children across Wales. All local authorities and schools should therefore be consulting with children, young people and their families in preparing their strategy or plan. How, therefore, do you respond to a situation of which I've been made aware where a local education authority, having accessed a school site, told the parents of a young wheelchair user that they were not prepared to pay for the adaptations needed for the site and that the pupil was going to be moved to another school before discussing the child's needs with the parents. Fortunately, the parents understood the law, their rights, both devolved and non-devolved, and they're now in engagement, but only because they battled to become so, and they're now discussing proposed alternative adaptations. So, how, two years after that key report, can you or will you re-engage with local education authorities, some of whom are still pursuing these archaic and discriminatory practices?
Welsh: Mae dwy flynedd bellach, rwy'n credu, ers i'r comisiynydd plant gynhyrchu ei hadroddiad dilynol ar hygyrchedd i ddefnyddwyr cadair olwyn mewn ysgolion yng Nghymru, 'Bywydau Llawn: Mynediad Cyfartal', a nodai nifer o feysydd i'w gwella, gyda rhai ohonynt yn ddyletswyddau llym o dan Deddf Cydraddoldeb 2010, a rhai nad oeddent. Daeth i'r casgliad, er enghraifft, fod 'gor-ddibyniaeth ar ysgolion unigol i gynllunio ar gyfer anghenion disgyblion ag anableddau corfforol' ac mai un yn unig o'r 22 cyngor yng Nghymru a ofynnodd am farn pobl ifanc wrth ddrafftio eu strategaeth hygyrchedd. Ymhlith y pethau y dywedodd fod angen iddynt ddigwydd oedd ymgynghori â phlant a phobl ifanc a'u teuluoedd, sy'n ddyletswydd o dan Ddeddf Cydraddoldeb 2010, ac mae'n rhaid i hynny ffurfio rhan o'r strategaethau a chynlluniau hygyrchedd i wneud y rhain yn ystyrlon ac i gynnal hawliau plant ledled Cymru. Felly, dylai pob awdurdod lleol ac ysgol ymgynghori â phlant, pobl ifanc a'u teuluoedd wrth baratoi eu strategaeth neu gynllun. Sut rydych chi'n ymateb felly i sefyllfa y tynnwyd fy sylw ati, lle dywedodd awdurdod addysg lleol, ar ôl mynychu safle ysgol, wrth rieni defnyddiwr cadair olwyn ifanc nad oeddent yn barod i dalu am yr addasiadau angenrheidiol ar gyfer y safle, a bod y disgybl yn mynd i gael ei symud i ysgol arall cyn trafod anghenion y plentyn gyda'r rhieni? Yn ffodus, roedd y rhieni'n deall y gyfraith, eu hawliau datganoledig a heb eu datganoli, ac maent bellach yn ymgysylltu, ond dim ond am eu bod wedi brwydro i wneud hynny, ac maent yn trafod addasiadau amgen arfaethedig. Sut, felly, ddwy flynedd ar ôl yr adroddiad allweddol hwnnw, y gallwch neu y byddwch yn ail-ymgysylltu ag awdurdodau addysg lleol, gan fod rhai ohonynt yn dal i weithredu'r arferion hynafol a gwahaniaethol hyn?
