The purpose of a Partnership Agreement was to enhance and sustain partnership working between the LA and schools. Currently, the Partnership Agreement specifies the arrangements for the review of the agreement and must be reviewed every 3 years. The proposed Partnership Agreement between the LA and schools was for September 2024 until August 2027. The Partnership Agreement was included as Appendix A to the report.

Rhaid i gynghorwyr ddweud pan fydd ganddyn nhw gysylltiad personol â rhywbeth sy'n cael ei drafod, fel swydd, eiddo neu aelod o'r teulu. Mae buddiant sy'n rhagfarnu yn ddigon cryf i'r cynghorydd adael yr ystafell fel arfer a pheidio â chymryd rhan.
Caiff datganiadau eu darllen o'r cofnodion unwaith y byddan nhw wedi'u cyhoeddi.
Yn rhestru cynghorwyr presennol y cyngor yn unig. Nid yw aelodau cyfetholedig, swyddogion a chyn-gynghorwyr yn cael eu dangos.
