Deiseb Ysgolion Bach Cymru / Petition for Small Schools in Wales

DEISEB / PETITION (Please scroll down for English version)

Yr ydym ni sydd wedi arwyddo isod yn galw ar Weinidog Addysg y Cynulliad i gydnabod yr argyfwng sy'n wynebu ysgolion pentrefol Cymru ac i gyhoeddi canllawiau cadarnhaol newydd i'w datblygu'n addysgol ac yn gymdeithasol"
Trwy gyhoeddi canllawiau newydd ar gyfer Awdurdodau lleol, byddai'n gorfod cydanbod methiant y drefn bresennol a danfon cyfarwyddyd at Awdurdodau i newid eu safbwynt.

Yr ydym am ddarpariaeth o gefnogaeth a gwybodaeth i gymunedau yng Nghymru gydag ysgolion bychain er mwyn datblygu ac ehangu eu cyfleoedd cymunedol cynaliadwy.
I amlygu cyfleoedd datblygiad cymunedol a fydd yn canolbwyntio ar ddefnyddio adeilad a chyfleusteraur ysgol gymunedol yn ystod cyfnodau addysg nad ydynt yn statudol.
Hefyd i gynnig cyfleoedd ehangiad ar gyfer gwasanaethau cymunedol wedi eu seilio ar fenter cymdeithasol a modelau cwmni cydweithredol.

We that have signed this petition call on the Education Secretary to acknowledge the crisis facing rural village schools and to publish new positive guidelines to be developed on a community level. By publishing these guidelines for local Authorities the Welsh Assembly Government will be acknowledging the failure of the current system and will send a message to Local Authorities to change their view on closing small village schools.

We wish you to highlight the need for support and information to communities in Wales with small schools in order to develop and expand their sustainable community opportunities.
To also highlight sustainable community development opportunities that will focus on utilising the community school building and facilities during non-statutory education periods.
To also offer expansion opportunities for community services based on social enterprise and cooperative company models
