Yn ogystal â’r cyllid sy’n cael ei roi i’r ysgolion eu hunain at ddibenion gwella, dyrannwyd cyllid Her Ysgolion Cymru ar gyfer pob consortiwm addysg er mwyn meithrin gallu ar lefel ranbarthol ac er mwyn hyrwyddo cydweithredu. Mae hyn yn cynnwys buddsoddi mewn canolfannau/grwpiau gwella, datblygu partneriaethau rhwng ysgolion a datblygiad proffesiynol parhaus ar gyfer arweinwyr ac ymarferwyr.
In addition to the funding being made available to schools directly for improvement activity, each education consortium has been allocated Schools Challenge Cymru funding to build capacity at a regional level and to drive collaboration. This activity includes investing in Improvement Hubs, developing school to school partnerships and continuing professional development for leaders and practitioners.
