507:. Like the UK versions (okay, I know it doesn't include Scotland) it is simply called the 'National Curriculum', not 'Australian National Curriculum' or the like; and so I would propose a disambiguation page under 'National Curriculum' which would then allow for the national curriuclum moves of various countries to be included. --
985:: "The Education Reform (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 was the correspondent piece of legislation to the Conservative government’s 1988 Education Reform Act in England and Wales. As in the 1988 Act, the Northern Ireland Order introduced a common curriculum, attainment targets, and programmes of study."

I think this page could do with more on the history of the
National Curriculum and the changes it has been through since its inception. There is one line that refers to how it has expanded in scope but with no real detail and there is no mention at all of the latest revision even though it represents

The purpose of the
National Curriculum was not "to enable league tables and inform parental choice". The purpose was to ensure that a uniform curriculum was taught in every state school across the country. The government of the time came to feel that subjects such as 'Peace Studies', which had grown

I have overhauled the listings of statutory subjects in the main article here. However, it has a natural bias towards the
English national curriculum. I have tried to make comments where appropriate for difference in Wales, but since the two systems seem to be constantly diverging now, I wonder if a

I must admit that digging further I have realised I was confused by the last argument because corresponding GCSE grades and IGCSE grades are considered equivalent, so why would a pupil want to take a harder exam to achieve the same grade? There is a lot more to this, but most of that would be more

In their efforts to stand out from the crowd at UCAS time, to widen horizons or from personal interest, an increasing number of school age students are studying with the Open
University, either through its Young Applicants in Schools and Colleges Scheme (YASS) or independently. Most of these

Obviously the criticism section should be critical, but at the moment it is directly critical, rather than reporting verifiable criticisms. I'm not convinced that the statements are even of the sort that could be verified. Certainly there would be a need to support the claim that IGCSEs are
455:- This is not quite true. While the outline of the syllabus is set by the NC, syllabuses are far more detailed, and vary between boards. For example, while the KS4 NC for Maths stretches to a couple of pages, just the Higher Tier section of the Edexcel syllabus is some 20+ pages.
234:
I mean, the maths article is very in formative, but not very accessible to school age people and not very informative as to what is taught in school and how maths is taught in schools. I feel the science and citizenship articles are even worse than the maths one in this respect.

the allowing of state school pupils to take exams unrelated to the
National Curriculum would signal admission that the system (National Curriculum, GCSEs, League Tables) does not suit the most gifted students.

The paragraph contained some valid comments on the effects of education policy, but was not relevant to the
National Curriculum. The writer had confused the National Curriculum with school league tables.

I have no idea what the ticks are supposed to represent. Every cell in the table has a green tick, except that none of the cells in the row for maths have ticks. What information is it meant to convey?
