Curriculum Studies - Session 4 What happened before 1989? Religious Education only statutory subject (1944 Education Act) Responsibility for curriculum with Local Education Authorities LEAs offer advice and guidance but largely delegate to schools Schools make varying use of published schemes, curriculum projects, textbooks or ‘do their own thing’ Examination boards largely ‘control’ secondary curriculum Curriculum Studies - Session 4

What were the principles? Return to classical humanist/technicist values Re-assertion of ‘subjects’ Objectives-driven Performance orientation Central control Curriculum Studies - Session 4
