From the consultation document 12.2 Disapplication of existing programmes of study, attainment targets and statutory assessment arrangements To support schools in their transition to the new curriculum, and to help pupils to succeed in the new National Curriculum tests and qualifications, we are proposing to disapply some aspects of the current National Curriculum from September This will give schools greater freedom to adapt their own curricula before first teaching of the new National Curriculum from September 2014.

Continued Schools will still be required to teach the subjects of the National Curriculum but they will not have to teach the current prescribed content of the current programmes of study. For primary schools, this would mean that from September 2013 we would disapply the programmes of study, attainment targets and statutory assessment arrangements for English, mathematics and science for pupils in Year 3 and Year 4 to give teachers greater freedom to prepare pupils for National Curriculum tests in these subjects when they reach Year 6. We also propose to disapply the current programmes of study and attainment targets at Key Stages 1 and 2 from September 2013 for all foundation subjects. For the purposes of Key Stage 1 assessment arrangements and Key Stage 2 assessment and testing arrangements in English, mathematics and science, we need to retain the existing programmes of study
