We have just held our “Meet the Governors Evening” for parents. We hold this every 18 months and all parents are invited to come and meet our governors and to ask them questions.
One of the questions this time was about the many imminent changes in the school curriculum and examination system. How were we preparing for this? This question is not just of interest to parents, but has been a major topic of conversation at almost every gathering, informal or formal, of teachers at which I have been present recently.
From September 2015, we are to teach new GCSE and AS and A level syllabuses in some subjects. Details of some of these courses have now been published, but some remain sketchy. We also have a General Election scheduled for May 7, 2015 – if Labour wins, then they assert that not all the proposed changes will happen.
