Very solid statement by @BeckyFrancis7 on the curriculum review

"in some areas the current curriculum is impeding depth and mastery of core concepts, reducing the autonomy of teachers and reducing the time available to teach some important subjects" @BeckyFrancis7 writes exclusively for Tes https://t.co/whemf5QOeg

“high standards” currently too often means “high standards for some” Today the @educationgovuk has published the independent Curriculum and Assessment Review: interim report led by our CEO @BeckyFrancis7

Curriculum and Assessment Review: interim report from ⁦@BeckyFrancis7⁩ out today

The government’s interim report today from @BeckyFrancis7 sees the role of curriculum as providing ‘knowledge and skills for a flourishing civil society, promoting social cohesion & sustaining democracy.’ Thus, foundations for a new nat. curriculum should be built on #antiracism

@tes @BeckyFrancis7 Just read couple of pieces about interim review- as someone definitely on the more Traditionalist wing this feels like a thoroughly well balanced & considered set of recommendations. Never doubted someone as serious-minded as @BeckyFrancis7 - sounds like much-needed evolution.

Excellent article from @BeckyFrancis7

Good to see this interim report - it sets out very helpfully what is working in the current system, and where there is still more to do to. ⁦Great to see the breadth of contributions and depth of evidence informing this work ⁦@BeckyFrancis7⁩

From what I hear about @BeckyFrancis7‘s curriculum review it will lean into the ‘evolution not revolution’ angle mentioned at its inception. Less building a new world on the ashes of the old, more Chesterton’s Fence- don’t replace something until you understand why it was there
