A new secondary curriculum is being introduced that will enable
schools to raise standards and help all their learners meet the
challenges of life in our fast-changing world.
After extensive consultation and development the Qualifications and Curriculum
Authority (QCA) have designed a curriculum that:
- Reduces prescription over subject content
- Creates flexibility to allow teachers to give attention to
pupils who are struggling to master the basic skills of English and
maths
- Frees up time and space to allow pupils to study some areas in
more depth
- Highlights the connections between the subjects
- Gives a new emphasis to the development of personal and life
skills
The resulting new curriculum will be rolled out in secondary
schools over three years, beginning with Year 7 pupils in September
2008.
CfBT will be working with ten subject associations to offer
subject specific support for the implementation of the new
secondary curriculum to all maintained schools in England covering
PSHE, citizenship, history, geography, design and technology,
languages, art and design, PE, RE and music.

secondary curriculum
