Education Matters for Governors and Heads: Action on the Curriculum

Education Matters for Governors and Heads: Action on the Curriculum

Speakers: Richard Harman (CEO, AGBIS), Simon O’Grady (CEO, High Performance Learning) and Christopher King (CEO, IAPS)

This webinar will look at innovations currently under way in IAPS schools with regard to the curriculum and in particular the state of the debate about the balance between a skills based or knowledge based curriculum. What is the best shape for the future curriculum? The place of Common Entrance and 11+ tests in the independent school system and the need for a more child centred approach at school transition points. It will also focus on the landscape being shaped by the School Improvement Commission Report (Improving Schools) and calls for progressive action from governors and senior leaders to achieve excellence and equity within our schools.
