ATL COMMENT ON PRIMARY CURRICULUM REVIEW

9 January 2008

Dr Mary Bousted, general secretary of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL), said:

“It’s a shame the Government is going for a cut-price review rather than getting the QCA to carry out a proper review of the primary curriculum. If the Government was really serious about improving children’s learning in primary school it would have sanctioned a fundamental review of what children are learning and how they are assessed. Doing it this way the curriculum will be dictated by the tests, instead of the right way around.”
