Next steps for curriculum reform in Wales

November 2017


Starting from: £99 + VAT
Format: DOWNLOADABLE PDF


As a new curriculum in Wales is developed with involvement from a range of bodies, this timely conference brought parties together to discuss objectives and priorities for its successful co-construction - with the Welsh Government planning for a staggered roll out of the new curriculum from 2022.


Delegates discussed the reform initiatives and how they might be better aligned; the role of pioneer schools as innovators and developers of curriculum reform, and the policy priorities for turning into reality the vision for curriculum reform in Wales originally proposed by Professor Graham Donaldson.


Further sessions considered key issues around leadership and direction in the formulation of the curriculum; challenges for ensuring that the new curriculum is focused, robust and underscored by clarity and organisational cohesion; engagement with those not directly involved in the curriculum reform process; and opportunities for innovation.
