  • Curriculum and Assessment Review: our call for evidence submission

    Effecting meaningful change

    We’re pleased to have contributed to the Government’s call for evidence as part of the Curriculum and Assessment Review. Joining the voices of other sector experts, educators, parents/carers and learners, we've shared our research, experience and recommendations with the panel.

    Today, we’re sharing a summary of key points from our submission, where we set out our recommendations for how meaningful change can be brought about.

  • We can start creating a broader curriculum without a review

    Pearson’s Managing Director of School Assessment and Qualification, Sharon Hague, penned an article about efforts to broaden the curriculum for Schools Week recently.

    Her article discusses the importance of creating a broader curriculum without waiting for the outcomes of the Curriculum and Assessment Review. While dramatic curriculum changes might grab attention, lasting progress is more likely to come from steady, incremental adjustments.

  • Welcoming the Curriculum and Assessment Review

    We believe in the power of education – and the role of the education system – to prepare all young people, regardless of background, to have successful and fulfilling futures in life, work and study.
