Bwletin 28.03.23

Mae bron yn ddiwedd y tymor ac mae golau’r dydd yn ymestyn, mae'r gwenoliaid yn cyrraedd yn ôl o Affrica ac mae gerddi eich ysgolion yn llawn cennin pedr, briallu ac eirlysiau erbyn hyn. Mae llawer wedi digwydd dros dymor y gwanwyn, ac mae wedi bod yn wych gweld yr holl waith arbennig sy’n digwydd yn yr ysgolion ar draws yr ynys. Mae'r cwricwlwm newydd yn datblygu’n dda, gyda llawer o enghreifftiau creadigol ar waith. Llongyfarchiadau i bawb sydd wedi cymryd rhan yn yr amryw eisteddfodau, ac edrychaf ymlaen at weld y rhai sydd wedi bod yn llwyddiannus ac a fydd yn cynrychioli eu hysgolion a’r ynys y tymor nesaf. Bu rhai enghreifftiau gwych o gydweithio rhwng ysgolion a chlystyrau, gweithio ar brosiectau amrywiol a rhannu arferion ymysg eich gilydd.

Nid yw'r tymor wedi bod heb ei heriau, gyda chyllidebau ysgolion, recriwtio a materion cymdeithasol i gyd yn effeithio ar ysgolion, ac rwy'n eich edmygu chi gyd am weithio drwyddynt gyda phroffesiynoldeb. Mae’n hynod o drist gweld un o’n prif gyflogwyr ar yr ynys, 2 Sisters, yn cau ei ddrysau ar ddiwedd y mis, ac rwy’n siŵr y bydd hyn yn achosi heriau yn eich ysgolion dros y misoedd nesaf. Mae'r Gwasanaeth Dysgu yma i'ch cefnogi mewn unrhyw ffordd y gallwn. Ar y llaw arall, cafwyd newyddion da iawn gyda chyhoeddiad y porthladd rhydd newydd yng Nghaergybi. Bydd hyn yn sicr o ddod â chyfleoedd i'r ynys ac yn anuniongyrchol i ysgolion Ynys Môn.

Ar ddiwedd y tymor, hoffwn gymryd y cyfle i ddiolch i Mrs Gwyneth Môn Hughes a fydd yn ymddeol ddiwedd y mis nesaf. Rydym yn ddiolchgar am ei gwaith caled dros y blynyddoedd wrth gefnogi ysgolion Ynys Môn. Bydd yn chwith heb Gwyneth fel rhan o’r tîm. Yn olaf, hoffwn ddiolch i bob un ohonoch am eich gwaith caled dros y tymor. Mae’r dylanwad cadarnhaol yr ydych yn ei gael ar blant a phobl ifanc Ynys Môn drwy eich gwaith caled yn amlwg i’w weld. Gobeithio y cewch chi gyd gyfle i fwynhau seibiant haeddiannol dros wyliau’r Pasg. Diolch.

It is almost the end of term and the days are getting longer, the swallows are returning from Africa and your school gardens are now full of daffodils, primroses and snowdrops. A lot has happened over the spring term, and it has been great to see all the excellent work going on in the schools across the island. The new curriculum is developing well, with many creative examples in place.

Congratulations to everyone who has taken part in the different eisteddfodau, and I look forward to seeing those who have been successful representing their schools and the island next term. There have been some great examples of collaborating between schools and clusters, working on various projects and sharing practices with each other. 

The term has not been without its challenges, with school budgets, recruitment and social issues all affecting schools, and I admire you all for working through these challenges with professionalism. It is incredibly sad to see one of our main employers on the island, 2 Sisters, closing its doors at the end of the month, which I'm sure will cause challenges in your schools over the coming months. The Learning Service is here to support you in any way we can. On the other hand, there has been good news with the announcement of the new freeport in Holyhead. This will undoubtedly bring opportunities to the island and indirectly to Anglesey's schools.

At the end of the term, I would like to take the opportunity to thank Mrs Gwyneth Môn Hughes who will be retiring at the end of next month. We are grateful for her hard work over the years in supporting Anglesey's schools. Gwyneth will be missed as part of the team. Finally, I would like to thank all of you for your hard work over the term. The positive influence you have on the children and young people of Anglesey through your hard work is clear to see. I hope you all have the opportunity to enjoy a well-deserved break over the Easter holidays. Thank you.

Mae’r ICO wedi cynhyrchu cyfres o adnoddau ysgol i athrawon eu defnyddio wrth drafod materion preifatrwydd a gwerth data personol. Mae'r cynlluniau gwersi'n ymdrin â beth sy'n cyfrif fel data personol, pam mae’n werthfawr a sut i'w gadw'n ddiogel wrth i ddisgyblion ddefnyddio’r cyfryngau cymdeithasol.

Mae’r ICO wedi ychwanegu cyfres o gynlluniau gwersi yn benodol ar y Cod Plant. Mae'r Cod Plant yn gyfres o reolau sydd wedi'u bwriadu i wneud y rhyngrwyd yn le mwy diogel i blant ddysgu, ymchwilio a chwarae. Mae’n ei gwneud yn ofynnol i sefydliadau roi buddiannau gorau'r plentyn yn gyntaf pan fyddant yn dylunio ac yn datblygu apiau, gemau, teganau cysylltiedig a gwefannau sy'n debygol o gael eu cyrchu gan bobl ifanc.

Mae'r adnoddau ar gael yn rhad ac am ddim i'w lawrlwytho a'u defnyddio ac maent yn ddwyieithog. Mae’r ICO hefyd wedi cynhyrchu set o daflenni gwaith ar gyfer pob PowerPoint i hwyluso trafodaeth. Gall athrawon ddefnyddio'r rhain i helpu plant i nodi ble gallan nhw fynd i gael cymorth, gan gynnwys yr hyn y dylen nhw ei wneud os ydyn nhw’n amau bod ap, gêm neu wefan yn camddefnyddio’u data neu nad yw’n cydymffurfio â'r Cod Plant.

Gall athrawon lawrlwytho taflenni gwaith ac adnoddau gwersi o wefan yr ICO:

The ICO has produced a suite of school resources for teachers to use when discussing privacy issues and the value of personal data. The lesson plans cover what counts as personal data, why it’s valuable and how to keep it safe when pupils are using social media. 

The ICO has added a set of lesson plans specifically on the Children’s Code. The Children’s Code is a set of rules designed to make the internet a safer place for children to learn, explore and play. It requires organisations to put the best interests of the child first when they are designing and developing apps, games, connected toys and websites that are likely to be accessed by young people.

The resources are free to download and use and are bilingual. The ICO has also produced a set of worksheets for each PowerPoint to facilitate discussion. Teachers can use these to help children identify where they can go to for support, including what they should do if they suspect an app, game or website is misusing their data or not conforming to the Children’s Code.

Teachers can download worksheets and lesson resources from the ICO’s website:

I’m getting in touch to let you know that the Welsh Government’s Jobs Growth Wales+ programme has recently got bigger and better. 

Since its launch, Jobs Growth Wales+ has been creating life-changing opportunities to help young people on the right path to earning money, gaining independence and reaching their full potential. The recent changes will extend the support available to help even more young people. 

New Jobs Growth Wales+ toolkit

The attached toolkit provides information on the changes along with a fresh suite of materials that you can use to promote Jobs Growth Wales+ across your channels. 

The toolkit highlights the new ‘Get Ready’ activity on the programme, along with the updates to the age eligibility, additional perks now on offer, and the new assets available for you to download.

This includes a brand-new Jobs Growth Wales+ explainer video featuring TikToker Ellis Lloyd Jones and radio DJ and presenter, Mirain Iwerydd; plus, fresh leaflets, videos, animations and accompanying social media posts.

How you can help

Thank you for your assistance in raising awareness of the programme over the last year. It’s made a huge difference.

We would love you to share the fresh material and messages with your networks and in conversations with young people to continue to raise awareness of Jobs Growth Wales+, especially with young people who may be at risk of dropping out of education who may benefit from ‘Get Ready’ activities.

If you have any questions about the assets in the toolkit, please feel free to contact me via pdavies@golleyslater.co.uk.

Any queries related to changes in the programme can be directed to the Jobs Growth Wales+ Delivery Team via AskJGWPlus@gov.wales 

Byddem yn ddiolchgar pe gallech drosglwyddo'r wybodaeth ganlynol i'ch CYS/CYSAG, os gwelwch yn dda.
