cy-gb	Fel Aelod Cynulliad sy’n “ cynrychioli’r etholaeth wledig fwyaf yng Nghymru, nid yw’n fawr o syndod fy mod wedi bod yn cefnogi ysgolion gwledig yn frwd ers blynyddoedd lawer. 

en-gb	If we ensure that learners and schools in rural Wales have the right support to succeed, then we can ensure that our rural communities and economy will go from strength to strength. 
cy-gb	Os gwnawn ni sicrhau bod dysgwyr ac ysgolion yn ardaloedd gwledig Cymru yn derbyn y cymorth priodol i lwyddo, yna gallwn sicrhau bod ein cymunedau a’n heconomi gwledig yn mynd o nerth i nerth. 

en-gb	There has never been a more exciting time to be involved in rural education in Wales. 
cy-gb	Mae’n amser cyffrous iawn i fod yn rhan o addysg wledig yng Nghymru. 

en-gb	Over the last two years, we have taken a number of actions to help give children in rural and remote areas the best start to their educational journey. 
cy-gb	Dros y ddwy flynedd diwethaf, rydym wedi cymryd nifer o gamau i sicrhau bod plant mewn ardaloedd gwledig ac anghysbell yn cael y dechrau gorau i’w taith addysgol. 

en-gb	We have introduced a new Small and Rural Schools Grant to encourage innovation, raise standards and support collaborative working.

cy-gb	ysgolion gwledig ac, am y tro cyntaf erioed, bydd gennym ddynodiad a rhestr o ysgolion gwledig yn y Cod Trefniadaeth Ysgolion ar gyfer hynny’n benodol. 

en-gb	This Government’s commitment to raising education standards in rural areas remains unwavering. 
cy-gb	Mae ymrwymiad y Llywodraeth hon i godi safonau addysg mewn ardaloedd gwledig yn parhau i fod yn gadarn. 

en-gb	Every learner in Wales, wherever they live, has the right to benefit from  high-quality education and the opportunity to reach their full potential. 
cy-gb	Mae gan bob dysgwr yng Nghymru, ble bynnag mae’n byw, hawl i dderbyn addysg o’r safon uchaf a’r cyfle i gyflawni ei lawn botensial. 

en-gb	This document brings together initiatives for small and rural schools from across our national mission into one coherent action plan. 
cy-gb	Mae’r ddogfen hon yn cynnwys mentrau ar gyfer ysgolion bach a gwledig o genhadaeth ein cenedl mewn un cynllun gweithredu cydlynol.

en-gb	Context 
cy-gb	Cyd-destun  

en-gb	This is the first ever rural education action plan for Wales. 
cy-gb	Dyma’r cynllun gweithredu addysg wledig cyntaf i Gymru. 

en-gb	It delivers on a commitment to develop a national approach to small and rural schools within the self-improving system as part of our national mission. 
cy-gb	Mae’n cyflawni ar ymrwymiad i ddatblygu dull gweithredu cenedlaethol mewn perthynas ag ysgolion bach a gwledig o fewn y system hunanwella yn rhan o genhadaeth ein cenedl. 

en-gb	As a government we know that places matter, and we recognise and support the distinctive regional strengths and priorities across our economy. 
cy-gb	Fel llywodraeth gwyddom fod lleoedd yn bwysig, ac rydym yn cydnabod ac yn cefnogi cryfderau a blaenoriaethau rhanbarthol gwahanol ein heconomi. 

en-gb	High-performing schools are crucial to the success and sustainability of rural Wales. 
cy-gb	Mae ysgolion sy’n cyflawni’n dda yn hanfodol i lwyddiant a chynaliadwyedd y Gymru wledig. 

en-gb	As the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has said recently:

cy-gb	of rural youth and also to attract young families to settle in these regions. 

en-gb	Our action plan draws on international evidence and best practice. 
cy-gb	Mae ein cynllun gweithredu’n defnyddio’r dystiolaeth ryngwladol hon ac arferion gorau. 

en-gb	Evidence tells us that rural schools are well-placed for strong co-operation and collaboration and facilitate a strong sense of belonging and community. 
cy-gb	Mae tystiolaeth yn dweud wrthym fod ysgolion gwledig mewn sefyllfa dda i gydweithio a chydweithredu mewn modd cadarn ac maent yn hwyluso ymdeimlad cryf o berthyn a chymuned. 

en-gb	For our education system to reach the very highest standards for all, we need to draw on these rural advantages, as well as the distinct strengths of urban and valleys schools. 
cy-gb	Os yw ein system addysg am gyrraedd y safonau uchaf i bawb, mae angen i ni ddefnyddio’r manteision gwledig hyn, a chryfderau unigryw ysgolion trefol a’r cymoedd. 

en-gb	Our action plan is set out across three themes, which represent the main challenges and opportunities. 
cy-gb	Mae ein cynllun gweithredu wedi’i gyflwyno mewn tair thema, sy’n cynrychioli’r prif heriau a chyfleoedd. 

en-gb	Theme 1: 
cy-gb	Thema 1: 

en-gb	Strengthened organisation and support for rural schools 
cy-gb	Trefniadaeth a chymorth mwy cadarn i ysgolion gwledig 

en-gb	 •  How we are reforming and refreshing process and structures so that rural schools are better  supported to thrive and innovate. 
cy-gb	 •  Sut rydym yn diwygio ac adnewyddu prosesau a strwythurau fel bod ysgolion gwledig yn  derbyn gwell cefnogaeth i ffynnu ac arloesi. 

en-gb	Theme 2: 
cy-gb	Thema 2: 

en-gb	Supporting equity and excellence in rural schools 
cy-gb	Cefnogi tegwch a rhagoriaeth mewn ysgolion gwledig 

en-gb	 •  How we are providing targeted support for rural schools and learners, and prioritising   leadership and professional learning opportunities for teachers. 
cy-gb	 •  Sut rydym yn darparu cymorth wedi’i dargedu i ysgolion gwledig a dysgwyr, ac yn    blaenoriaethu cyfleoedd arweinyddiaeth a dysgu proffesiynol i athrawon.  

en-gb	Theme 3: 
cy-gb	Thema 3: 

en-gb	Supporting rural schools as community and educational spaces 
cy-gb	Cefnogi ysgolion gwledig fel mannau cymunedol ac addysgol 

en-gb	 •  How we are delivering the best digital education resources and ensuring rural schools are   modern educational and community hubs. 
cy-gb	  •  Sut rydym yn darparu’r adnoddau addysg ddigidol gorau ac yn sicrhau bod ysgolion      gwledig yn ganolfannau addysgol a chymunedol modern.   

en-gb	Theme 1: Strengthened organisation and support for rural schools 
cy-gb	Thema 1: Trefniadaeth a chymorth mwy cadarn i ysgolion gwledig 

en-gb	Schools and communities in different parts of Wales face different challenges as we move forward with our reforms to raise education standards and reduce the attainment gap. 
cy-gb	Mae ysgolion a chymunedau mewn gwahanol rannau o Gymru’n wynebu heriau gwahanol wrth i ni symud ymlaen gyda’n diwygiadau i godi safonau addysg a lleihau’r bwlch cyrhaeddiad. 

en-gb	There are significant benefits – academic, cultural and social – to learners and communities through the delivery of high-quality education in small and rural schools 1 . 
cy-gb	Mae darparu addysg o safon uchel mewn ysgolion bach a gwledig yn gallu dod â manteision sylweddol – academaidd, diwylliannol a chymdeithasol – i ddysgwyr a chymunedau 1 . 

en-gb	This can be critical in engaging learners and families from the most disadvantaged backgrounds in rural areas and raising learner aspirations, as well as making a significant contribution to the long-term sustainability of the local community. 
cy-gb	Gall hyn fod yn allweddol i sicrhau bod dysgwyr a theuluoedd o’r cefndiroedd mwyaf difreintiedig mewn ardaloedd gwledig yn ymgysylltu ac er mwyn codi dyheadau dysgwyr, yn ogystal â chyfrannu at gynaliadwyedd hirdymor y gymuned leol. 

en-gb	Therefore we are introducing reforms to strengthen the processes to support rural schools, accelerate school-to-school relationships, and prioritise educational leadership.
cy-gb	Felly, rydym yn cyflwyno diwygiadau i gryfhau’r prosesau i gefnogi ysgolion gwledig, i gyflymu cysylltiadau rhwng ysgolion, a blaenoriaethu arweinyddiaeth addysgol.

en-gb	Small and rural schools play an important role in raising standards and extending opportunities for all, and they must be supported to innovate, embed professional learning for staff, and recruit and retain motivated and excellent teachers. 
cy-gb	Mae ysgolion bach a gwledig yn gwneud cyfraniad pwysig at godi safonau ac ehangu cyfleoedd i bawb, ac mae’n rhaid eu cefnogi i arloesi, ymgorffori dysgu proffesiynol i staff, a recriwtio a chadw athrawon brwdfrydig a rhagorol.
