Stop School Hunger

Stop School Hunger

As a result of TCC’s Stop School Hunger / Dysgu Nid Llwgu campaign, the Welsh Government committed £450,000 towards a new pilot scheme. This will provide an extra £1 a day for eligible secondary pupils, so they can afford to buy breakfast as well as lunch at school. 
 

The pilot will start in January 2021 for Year 7 pupils, and if successful will be expanded to all eligible pupils in Wales.

Cefnogwch yr ymgyrch

Dwi’n  cefnogi’r bwriad o gynyddu’r lwfans pryd ysgol am ddim.  Galwaf ar Lywodraeth Cymru i estyn yr ymrwymiad i bob plentyn sy’n derbyn y lwfans yng Nghymru.

Support the campaign

I support the proposed increase to the free school meals allowance, and call on Welsh Government to extend this commitment to all eligible children in Wales.ANFON | SEND

Mae ein hymchwil ein hunain yn cefnogi tystiolaeth arall gan Gomisiynydd Plant Cymru ac eraill, bod plant yn cyrraedd yr ysgol uwchradd, yn rhy llwglyd i ddysgu. Gorfodir grŵp sylweddol o blant sy’n gymwys i gael prydau ysgol am ddim i ddewis rhwng bwyta brecwast neu ginio iawn. Ni allant gael y ddau.

Our own research backs up evidence from the likes of the Children’s Commissioner for Wales that children are arriving at secondary school, too hungry to learn. A significant group of children eligible for free school meals are forced to choose between eating breakfast or a proper lunch. They can’t have both. 

Mae gan bob un ohonom stori i’w hadrodd…

P’un a ydych chi’n athro, cynorthwyydd dysgu, llywodraethwr ysgol, rhiant neu ddisgybl, mae eich stori’n bwysig.  ydd eich stori yn helpu i baentio llun o’r llwgu sy’n wynebu ein disgyblion tlotaf a pham mae’n rhaid i Lywodraeth Cymru gynyddu prydau ysgol am ddim, fel y gallant fforddio bwyta brecwast a chinio iawn.

We all have a story to tell… 

Whether you’re a teacher, teaching assistant, school governor, parent or pupil, your story matters. Your story will help paint a picture of the hunger facing our poorest pupils and why Welsh Government must increase free school meals, so they can afford to eat breakfast and a proper lunch.
