I've previously posted my initial thoughts about the final report of the Curriculum and Assessment Review by Becky Francis, and the DfE's response.
Others have also posted theirs.
Dan Morrow in the TES is positive about the outcome.He calls it a rare thing: a research-grounded, professionally owned blueprint that trusts the sector to implement it with intelligence and care.
Alan Parkinson, the Society’s Vice President for Education said: “Geography has a vital role to play in equipping young people with the knowledge, skills and interest to address the challenges we face in a rapidly changing world now and into the future, locally, regionally and globally.
“We look forward to working with the Department for Education and the geography subject community on these recommendations, recognising schools and teachers will need support to implement them, given the very limited capacity in the system and the complexity of some of the proposals.
“We appreciate everyone – in schools and beyond – who shared their insights about the geography curriculum and informed our response to the Curriculum and Assessment Review’s consultation.”
Mark Enser has posted a series of thoughts on his Substack.
It ended with a quote:
