Ysgol Gymraeg Ffwrnes Datganiad CGA 

Dyrennir y Grant Datblygu Disgyblion (CGA) i ysgolion sydd â disgyblion sy’n dod o deuluoedd incwm isel ac ar hyn o bryd eu bod yn gymwys i gael prydau ysgol am ddim (e-FSM) a disgyblion sydd wedi bod yn derbyn gofal yn barhaus am fwy na chwe mis ( LAC). Disgwylir i ysgolion wneud y defnydd gorau o’r cyllid hwn i roi strategaethau cynaliadwy ar waith a fydd yn sicrhau newidiadau’n gyflym i ddysgwyr sy’n gymwys i gael prydau ysgol am ddim neu sy’n blant sy’n derbyn gofal.

Fel ysgol rydym wedi cytuno ar y tri cham canlynol:

1. i nodi'r grŵp targed o ddisgyblion, ei nodweddion a'i anghenion
2. cynllunio ymyriadau sy'n gwneud y defnydd mwyaf effeithiol o adnoddau
3. monitro a gwerthuso effaith adnoddau

Yn 2023-24 cafodd Ysgol Gymraeg Ffwrnes ddyraniad GAD o £59,800 + £17,500 (EYPDG) = £77,050

Mae gennym gynllun cynhwysfawr, y cytunwyd arno ac a gaiff ei fonitro gan Awdurdod Lleol Sir Gaerfyrddin, i hyrwyddo cynnydd a dileu rhwystrau i ddysgu i fyfyrwyr sy'n gymwys ar gyfer y cyllid hwn.

Rydym wedi defnyddio’r cyllid sydd ar gael i fynd i’r afael â Maes Arolygu Allweddol 1 (Safonau) a Maes Arolygu Allweddol 3 (Addysgu a Dysgu):

• gwella addysgu a dysgu trwy ddarparu rhaglenni cymorth - wedi'u hanelu at ddatblygu sgiliau mathemateg disgyblion yn y CS a CA2. Cyflogir Cynorthwywyr Addysgu i ddatblygu'r sgiliau hyn mewn sefyllfaoedd grŵp bach. Mae asesiadau gwaelodlin wedi'u gwneud a chaiff cynnydd disgyblion ei fonitro a'i olrhain yn agos. Mae asesiad i fesur y cynnydd i'w gynnal ar ddiwedd y flwyddyn.

Ysgol Gymraeg Ffwrnes PDG 

The Pupil Development Grant (PDG) is allocated to schools with pupils who come from low-income families and are currently known to be eligible for free school meals (e-FSM) and pupils who have been looked after continuously for more than six months (LAC).  Schools are expected to make the best use of this funding to implement sustainable strategies that will quickly bring about changes for learners eligible for free school meals or who are LAC. 

As a school we have agreed the following three steps:

1. to identify the target group of pupils, its characteristics and needs
2. to plan interventions which make the most effective use of resources
3. to monitor and evaluate the impact of resources

In 2023-24 Ysgol Gymraeg Ffwrnes was provided with a PDG allocation of £59,800 + £17,500 (EYPDG) = £77,050

We have a comprehensive plan, agreed and monitored by Carmarthenshire Local Authority, to promote progress and remove barriers to learning for students eligible for this funding.

We have used the funding available to address Key Inspection Area 1 (Standards) and Key Inspection Area 3 (Teaching & Learning):

• enhance teaching and learning by providing programmes of support- aimed at developing pupils maths skills in both the FP & KS2. Teaching Assistants are employed to develop these skills in small group situations. Baseline assessments have been made and pupil progress is closely monitored and tracked. An assessment to measure the progress is to be carried out at the end of the year.
• enhance teaching and learning by providing programmes of support aimed at developing pupils phonic and reading skills in both the FP & KS2 Teaching Assistants are employed to develop these skills in small group situations. Baseline assessments have been made and pupil progress is closely monitored and tracked. An assessment to measure the progress will be carried out at the end of the year.
• The PDG will also be used to develop the family values scheme intervention within the school to strengthen links with parents; fund a family engagement Officer within the school to monitor, improve attendance and engage pupils through positive play on the yard; offer play therapy sessions.
