UK National Curriculum review

By Forumite @ 2024-10-15T11:34 (+14)

The new UK government have commissioned a review of the National Curriculum.

Perhaps there is something we can do to get animal welfare issues more firmly onto the new National Curriculum? And/or perhaps things related to ethics/philosophy more generally?

Potentially it's a leveraged way to reach a lot of people, on an ongoing basis.

Some info on the review is here.

This seems interesting generally (assuming you've seen this post?)

Would you consider writing up a doc like this Submission Guide with some of the arguments you would make?

Also, this article about education in terms of global development might be relevant

Hey Gemma! Thanks for your response, and for flagging those other links.

To be honest, I want to keep my involvement in this quite light-touch/low-effort, and I don't plan to write up a Submission Guide. However, if other people reading this wanted to do some work on this and think about how best to engage/influence the Curriculum Review, I'd be up for convening a call. If anyone is interested, comment here and/or DM me...
