Curriculum and assessment review 2024

The government has launched a review of the existing national curriculum, statutory assessments and qualification system in England, to ensure they are fit for purpose and meeting the needs of children and young people. You can read the terms of reference for the review here.

The review is chaired by Professor Becky Francis CBE, CEO of the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), and you can read more detailed information about her and the members of the panel here.

Call for evidence

The review panel is running a call for evidence that is open until 22 November 2024.

NAHT will be responding to this call for evidence on behalf of members, but it is important that the call for evidence receives as many responses as possible from school leaders across the country so please respond and encourage colleagues to do so.

The call for evidence is long and wide ranging – there are 45 questions that are organised by themes rather than phases of education.

To support members in responding to this call for evidence, we’ve created a document outlining out the questions that are relevant to each phase, with those questions that are cross phase at the end. We hope this will help members choose which questions they want to answer to express their views and share their experiences and which questions they want to skip.

See our information on the curriculum and assessment review call for evidence.
