naace1_thumbnailNaace continues to play an active part in the review of the Review. Our professional officer attended an important QCA event last week to launch the consultation, and two members of the board will participate in a Council for Subject Associations conference to respond to Sir Jim’s proposals.

QCA, who are managing the official consultation on behalf of DCSF, have asked Naace to organise an event for primary practitioners to focus on the ICT elements within the proposed new curriculum. This event will take place in London on Friday 19 June.

This is a great opportunity for members in primary schools to play a part in shaping the new curriculum. QCA will be able to reimburse supply cover costs (up to £190) and travel costs for those teachers attending. If you would like to be considered for this group, please register your interest at http://tinyurl.com/RoseEvent by Tuesday 2 June.

And don’t forget, www.qca.org.uk/qca_22256.aspx links to the QCA consultation on the changes being proposed to the primary curriculum, the teaching of PSHE education, new subject level descriptions (including ICT) and the teaching of religious education.
