Mae torri cylch anfantais a thlodi yn hanfodol i lesiant hirdymor a llwyddiant ein plant. Mae gan addysg rôl hanfodol yn hyn, ac mae’n gallu gwneud gwahaniaeth mawr. Ni ddylai gallu rhywun i elwa ar addysg fod yn ddibynnol ar ei amgylchiadau personol ac mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ymrwymo i gael gwared ag unrhyw rwystrau i ddysgu a sicrhau tegwch a rhagoriaeth i blant a phobl ifanc. Mae ein Grant Datblygu Disgyblion yn ganolog i hyn.
Breaking the cycle of disadvantage and poverty is critical to the long term well-being and success of our children. Education has a fundamental role in this and can make a real difference. Someone’s ability to benefit from education should not be determined by their personal circumstances and the Welsh Government is committed to removing barriers to learning and ensuring equity and excellence for all children and young people.  Our Pupil Development Grant (PDG) is central to this.
