O fewn Cynllun Adnewyddu a Diwygio Llywodraeth Cymru cafodd plant yn y blynyddoedd cynnar (hyd at 7 oed) hefyd eu nodi fel carfan o ddysgwyr oedd angen cymorth ychwanegol. Darparwyd cyllid ychwanegol o £10 miliwn trwy'r Grant Gwella Addysg yn 2021-22 i gryfhau'r modd y cyflwynir addysg gynnar, yn enwedig i sicrhau bod anghenion emosiynol, corfforol a dysgu plant yn cael eu bodloni.  Darparwyd £3 miliwn arall i leoliadau gofal plant eraill, gan gynnwys gwarchodwyr plant, nad ydynt yn darparu addysg feithrin ond y disgwylir iddynt (fel yr amlinellir yn y Safonau Gofynnol Cenedlaethol) ddeall a defnyddio egwyddorion addysgegol addysg gynnar yn eu darpariaeth.
Within the Welsh Government’sRenew and Reform Planchildren in the early years (up to the age of 7) were also identified as a cohort of learners requiring extra support. Additional funding of £10m was provided through the Education Improvement Grant in 2021-22 to strengthen the delivery of early education, particularly to ensure children’s emotional, physical and learning needs are met.  A further £3m was provided to wider childcare settings, including childminders, that do not provide nursery education but are expected (as outlined in the National Minimum Standards) to understand and apply the pedagogical principles of early education in their provision.
