(Nid yw'r nodyn hwn yn rhan o'r Rheoliadau)
Mae'r Rheoliadau hyn yn diwygio Rheoliadau Addysg (Maint Dosbarthiadau Babanod) (Cymru) 1998 (“rheoliadau 1998”) a deuant i rym ar 22 Ebrill 2009.
Maent yn gwneud pum diwygiad i'r categorïau o ddisgyblion a eithrir a geir yn yr Atodlen i reoliadau 1998 (“yr Atodlen”).
Maent yn ychwanegu tri chategori newydd.
Maent yn ychwanegu plant sy'n derbyn gofal ac sy'n cael eu derbyn i ysgolion y tu allan i'r cylch derbyn arferol; disgyblion sy'n cael eu derbyn y tu allan i'r cylch derbyn arferol ac sydd yn dymuno cael addysg mewn ysgol ac iddi gymeriad crefyddol penodol; a phlant sy'n cael eu derbyn i'r ysgol, o fewn gr?p oedran arferol derbyn disgyblion ac ar ôl diwrnod cyntaf y flwyddyn ysgol berthnasol, os na chyrhaeddwyd eto nifer derbyn yr ysgol ond bod yr ysgol eisoes wedi rhoi trefn ar ei dosbarthiadau ac y byddai derbyn y plentyn yn golygu y byddai'n rhaid i'r ysgol gymryd camau perthnasol.
Os nad yr awdurdod lleol yw'r awdurdod derbyn ar gyfer yr ysgol, mae'n ofynnol i'r awdurdod lleol gadarnhau, cyn y gellir ystyried y plentyn yn ddisgybl a eithrir, nad oes lleoedd ar gael mewn ysgol ac iddi gymeriad crefyddol penodol o fewn pellter rhesymol i gartref y plentyn.
Maent yn diwygio paragraff 5 o'r Atodlen fel y bydd yn ofynnol i'r awdurdod lleol, os nad yr awdurdod lleol yw awdurdod derbyn yr ysgol o dan sylw, gadarnhau, cyn y gellir ystyried y plentyn yn ddisgybl a eithrir, nad oes lleoedd ar gael mewn ysgol addas o fewn pellter rhesymol i gartref y plentyn.
Rhoddir paragraff newydd yn lle paragraff 6 o'r Atodlen ac mae'r eithriad a gafwyd yn wreiddiol ym mharagraff 6 (plant a gaiff eu derbyn i'r ysgol yn y flwyddyn dderbyn arferol ac sydd yn dymuno cael addysg mewn ysgol sy'n ysgol Gymraeg ac os yr ysgol o dan sylw yw'r unig ysgol o'i bath o fewn pellter rhesymol i'w cartrefi) yn gymwys bellach i blant a gaiff eu derbyn y tu allan i'r cylch derbyn arferol.
Os nad yr awdurdod lleol yw'r awdurdod derbyn ar gyfer yr ysgol, mae'n ofynnol i'r awdurdod lleol gadarnhau, cyn y gellir ystyried y plentyn yn ddisgybl a eithrir, nad oes lleoedd ar gael mewn ysgol Gymraeg o fewn pellter rhesymol i gartref y plentyn.
Cafodd swyddogaethau'r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol o dan yr adrannau hyn eu trosglwyddo i Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru gan Orchymyn Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru (Trosglwyddo Swyddogaethau) 1999 (O.S. 1999/672) ac yna i Weinidogion Cymru gan baragraff 30 o Atodlen 11 i Ddeddf Llywodraeth Cymru 2006 (p.32).
