Byddwn yn cynyddu ein hymgysylltiad ag ysgolion, gan roi amser iddynt ddod at ei gilydd fel rhan o sgwrs genedlaethol i fyfyrio ar eu profiadau o bandemig COVID-19 a’u heriau wrth adfer dysgu, a sut y gallwn ddatblygu ar y cyd y dulliau gweithredu a'r gefnogaeth a fydd yn ein galluogi i symud ymlaen gyda'n gilydd. Gwn na fydd ymarferwyr a dysgwyr yn gallu canolbwyntio ar ddysgu oni bai ein bod yn rhoi amser ar gyfer hyn. Ni allwn ddisgwyl i ysgolion ac ymarferwyr ddatblygu dealltwriaeth a gweledigaeth ar gyfer y cwricwlwm newydd nes eu bod wedi gweithio gyda'u dysgwyr i ailffocysu eu taith ddysgu. Rhaid i hyn fod yn ymrwymiad hirdymor, i gefnogi dysgu ac i barhau i ddarparu cymorth ar gyfer gweithredu Cynllun Gweithredu'r Cwricwlwm.
Our recovery also needs to prioritise the needs of our exam year cohorts, who have been severely affected by the disruption, and their learning and progression plans. I recently set out our intentions for these qualifications for 2021, and we will prioritise how we support these learners’ progression into further or higher education, employment or training over coming months. This effort will embed and move towards the principles and priorities of the Curriculum for Wales. Qualifications Wales will publish their consultation on the new approach to qualifications for 16 year-olds imminently, and I anticipate that further work and good practice will emerge on assessment for qualifications, well-being and progression, from our experiences this last year. Guidance is available onexpectations for remote learningfor pupils in exam years this year.
