This is a very nasty wolf in fluffy baa baa gear.
As someone who has been following the development og the CfE on and off from the start and as someone who really wants this to be able to deliver the kind of education described , I could rant on for a very long time about this but won't
Curriculum for Excellence - Aims, purposes and principles
All sounds lovely, but how they going to assess it?
This is how:
Curriculum for Excellence - Experiences and outcomes
Literacy:
http://www.ltscotland.org.uk/Images/...cm4-539867.pdf
Health and Wellbeing:
http://www.ltscotland.org.uk/Images/...cm4-540031.pdf
etc, etc....
Have just realised that the press release was referring to the fact that these "outcomes" are now in pretty PDFs and no longer in draft form.
The health and well-being ones have been "shrunk" by the use of loads of code refs which make them slightly more difficult to understand imo - should have kept a copy of the draft ones
Anyway, promised I'd save you from a rant....
