Y prif reswm dros fy mhenderfyniad yw tegwch; bydd yr amser y bydd dysgwyr yn ei dreulio mewn ysgolion a cholegau yn amrywio’n aruthrol ac, yn y sefyllfa hon, mae’n amhosibl gwarantu chwarae teg i gynnal arholiadau.Yn hytrach nag arholiadau, bwriadwn weithio gydag athrawon i ddatblygu asesiadau dan reolaeth athrawon.Dylai hyn gynnwys asesiadau a fydd yn cael eu gosod a'u marcio yn allanol, ond eu cynnal yn y dosbarth o dan oruchwyliaeth athrawon.Rwy’n disgwyl iddynt gael eu defnyddio fel sylfaen ar gyfer canlyniadau gan ganolfannau, gyda dull cenedlaethol y cytunwyd arno i sicrhau cysondeb ar draws Cymru.
The primary reason for my decision is down to fairness; the time learners will spend in schools and colleges will vary hugely and, in this situation, it is impossible to guarantee a level playing field for exams to take place.Instead of exams, we intend to work with teachers to take forward teacher-managed assessments.These should include assessments that will be externally set and marked, but delivered within a classroom environment under teacher supervision.My expectation is that these will form the basis for centre-based outcomes, which will be linked to an agreed national approach to provide consistency across Wales.
