Demand for college places is growing - but funding is not keeping pace. BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru highlight pressures facing colleges, with Coleg Cambria, Cardiff and Vale College and Coleg y Cymoedd sharing challenges of rising demand, limited capacity and the need for long-term funding.
Mae’r galw am leoedd coleg yn cynyddu, ond nid yw cyllid yn cadw i fyny. Bu BBC Radio Wales a BBC Radio Cymru yn edrych ar yr heriau sy’n wynebu #colegau #addysgbellach yng Nghymru - gyda Choleg Cambria, Coleg Caerdydd a’r Fro a Choleg y Cymoedd yn rhannu’r pwysau cynyddol ar gapasiti a darpariaeth
Demand for #furthereducation has never been higher, but years of underinvestment mean #colleges are increasingly unable to meet learner need. Investing in colleges is investing in young people, skills and Wales' future prosperity. 🔗 Read more in this BBC report:
College waiting lists for September leave teens with 'nowhere to go'
Young people are being turned away from courses due to a lack of funding, say college bosses

Nid yw'r galw am #addysgbellach erioed wedi bod yn uwch, ond mae blynyddoedd o danfuddsoddi yn golygu ei bod yn gynyddol anodd i golegau ddiwallu anghenion dysgwyr. Mae buddsoddi mewn #colegau yn fuddsoddiad ym mhobl ifanc, sgiliau a dyfodol llewyrchus Cymru.
Mae misogynedd, aflonyddu ac ymddygiad niweidiol ar-lein yn heriau y mae colegau ledled Cymru yn gweithio i fynd i'r afael â nhw - Mae'r erthygl hon yn archwilio sut mae'r sector Addysg Bellach yn ymateb trwy gydweithio rhyngwladol ac ymgysylltu â dysgwyr.

We were pleased to welcome MSs and college leaders from Mid and West Wales to Cardiff Bay yesterday to celebrate the impact of Wales’ colleges, and to discuss the importance of investing in the sector to grow our businesses and support our communities. Thank you to everyone who joined us.
Roeddem yn falch o groesawu ASau ac arweinwyr colegau o Ganolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru i Fae Caerdydd ddoe i ddathlu effaith colegau Cymru, ac i drafod pwysigrwydd buddsoddi yn y sector i dyfu ein busnesau a chefnogi ein cymunedau. Diolch i bawb a ymunodd â ni.
Diolch i Kiera Marshall AS am dynnu sylw at Brentisiaethau Iau yn y Senedd. Roedd yn galonogol clywed cefnogaeth i'r rhaglen a chydnabyddiaeth o bwysigrwydd llwybrau galwedigaethol o ansawdd uchel i bobl ifanc 14-16 oed. @plaidcymru.bsky.social @cefincampbell.bsky.social @estyn-hmi.bsky.social
Grateful to Kiera Marshall MS for highlighting Junior Apprenticeships in the Senedd. Encouraging to hear support for the programme and recognition of the importance of high-quality vocational pathways for 14-16 year olds. @plaidcymru.bsky.social @cefincampbell.bsky.social @estyn-hmi.bsky.social
Diolch yn fawr i Sam Rowlands AS am dynnu sylw at y pwysau ariannu difrifol sy'n wynebu colegau. Gyda diffyg cyllid o £30m o fis Medi a galw record am gyrsiau, mae angen gweithredu ar frys i ddiogelu cyfleoedd i ddysgwyr ledled Cymru. youtu.be/sFhWO_76GIs

Diolch i Lynne Neagle AS am dynnu sylw at rôl hanfodol mae colegau'n chwarae wrth gefnogi pobl ifanc sydd fwyaf mewn perygl o ddod yn NEET. Rydym yn parhau i annog pob plaid wleidyddol i gydweithio ar gytundeb cyllideb sy'n blaenoriaethu buddsoddiad mewn pobl ifanc. www.colegau.cymru/cy/blog/post...
Grateful to Lynne Neagle MS for highlighting the vital role colleges play in supporting young people most at risk of becoming NEET. We continue to urge all political parties to work together on a budget agreement that prioritises investment in young people. www.colleges.wales/en/blog/post...
