Dros y naw mlynedd diwethaf, mae Cymru wedi bod yn gweithredu rhaglen helaeth ar gyfer adnewyddu ac adeiladu ysgolion a cholegau newydd, gan uwchraddio a disodli'r rhai sydd fwyaf angen eu disodli am resymau diogelwch ac ansawdd. Mae’r gwaith hwn yn destun balchder. Mae gwario cyfalaf ar addysg yn Lloegr wedi cael ei dorri’n sylweddol, ond mae ein rhaglen Cymunedau Dysgu Cynaliadwy (a elwir gynt yn rhaglen Ysgolion a Cholegau ar gyfer yr 21ain Ganrif) yn darparu'r rhaglen adeiladu fwyaf ers y 1960au i fynd i’r afael ag adeiladau ysgolion a cholegau addysg bellach sy’n heneiddio yng Nghymru.
Over the last nine years, Wales has had an extensive programme for the refurbishment and building of new schools and colleges, upgrading and replacing those which are most in need of replacement for safety and quality reasons. This is a record to be proud of. While education capital spending in England has been significantly cut, our Sustainable Communities for Learning Programme – previously known as the 21stCentury Schools and Colleges programme – is delivering the biggest new school and further education building programme in Wales since the 1960s to address an ageing estate.
