Summary
"It is more than ten years since the National Curriculum was introduced. Since then it has undergone, and continues to undergo, many changes and has aroused a great deal of attention and activity. The issues surrounding the Dearing Report, the literacy hours and numeracy debates have generated considerable discussion, quite apart from the fundamental questions that the policy itself raises." "The central, empirical issue addressed in this book is what impact the introduction of the National Curriculum has had on pupils in school, their teachers and on academic and social standards. The contributors examine the history and development of the National Curriculum and assess its impact."--Jacket.
