As schools prepare for the new academic year and the lead-up to Bett UK, understanding the latest curriculum review is essential for impactful conversations with educators.

Curriculum reviews present a valuable opportunity to rethink the purpose of our education system. They can be exciting for schools as subjects are reformed and new ones introduced. However, as with any period of change, they also bring uncertainty around deliverability, implementation, and practicality.

This challenge was highlighted in the latest edition of BESA’s Compass Report, which found that 68% of school leaders are unsure whether their teams have the capacity to respond to the proposed changes.

In this webinar, Peter Doyle, BESA’s Policy Manager, will unpack the key findings from the review and explore how some recommendations may clash with the realities schools face today. Topics include:

  • Key updates from the curriculum and assessment review and their implications for teaching and learning
  • Implementation timeline for the recommendations
  • Practical obstacles schools may encounter
  • Strategies to engage school leaders and teachers effectively

Join us to ensure you’re informed, confident, and ready to support schools in navigating curriculum and assessment changes, particularly in the run-up to the Bett Show.
