Why has the curriculum changed?
7
Education only flourishes if it successfully
adapts to the demands and needs of the time. The
curriculum cannot remain static. It must be
responsive to changes in society and the economy,
and changes in the nature of schooling itself.
National Curriculum 1999

    sustainability, social cohesion, enterprise.

Table Activity 1- Agreeing the big
pictureWhat are we trying to achieve through
PSHE education? Ideally, how would we like to be
able to describe the impact on young people who

schools, as communities benefit from our
programme?

compelling learning What would we expect to see
if a learning experience in personal wellbeing

differences?) Dear Timetabler..

Making an impactApproaches to disciplined
innovation
39
Disciplined innovation
"The best approach would allow for
experimentation. As we also report today, there
are concerns that many initiatives in education
are pursued without being tested properly.
Ministers should encourage different schools to
engage in different strategies for motivating
children at this sensitive age, pool the results
and adjust accordingly. There is no merit
whatsoever is replacing uniform teaching with
anarchy. The Times 2007 5th Feb 2007
