1.Introduction1.1This document sets out the framework for the national curriculum at key stages 1 and 2 and includes:
2.The school curriculum in England2.1Every state-funded school must offer a curriculum which is balanced and broadly based1 and which:
2.2The school curriculum comprises all learning and other experiences that each school plans for its pupils. The national curriculum forms one part of the school curriculum. 2.3All state schools are also required to make provision for a daily act of collective worship and must teach religious education to pupils at every key stage and sex and relationship education to pupils in secondary education. 2.4Maintained schools in England are legally required to follow the statutory national curriculum which sets out in programmes of study, on the basis of key stages, subject content for those subjects that should be taught to all pupils. All schools must publish their school curriculum by subject and academic year online.2 2.5All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), drawing on good practice. Schools are also free to include other subjects or topics of their choice in planning and designing their own programme of education. 3.The national curriculum in EnglandAims3.1The national curriculum provides pupils with an introduction to the essential knowledge that they need to be educated citizens. It introduces pupils to the best that has been thought and said; and helps engender an appreciation of human creativity and achievement. 3.2The national curriculum is just one element in the education of every child. There is time and space in the school day and in each week, term and year to range beyond the national curriculum specifications. The national curriculum provides an outline of core knowledge around which teachers can develop exciting and stimulating lessons to promote the development of pupils’ knowledge, understanding and skills as part of the wider school curriculum. Structure3.3Pupils of compulsory school age in community and foundation schools, including community special schools and foundation special schools, and in voluntary aided and voluntary controlled schools, must follow the national curriculum. It is organised on the basis of four key stages3 and twelve subjects, classified in legal terms as ‘core’ and ‘other foundation’ subjects. 3.4The Secretary of State for Education is required to publish programmes of study for each national curriculum subject, setting out the ‘matters, skills and processes’ to be taught at each key stage. Schools are free to choose how they organise their school day, as long as the content of the national curriculum programmes of study is taught to all pupils. 3.5The structure of the national curriculum, in terms of which subjects are compulsory at each key stage, is set out in the table below: Figure 1 – Structure of the national curriculum
3.6All schools are also required to teach religious education at all key stages. Secondary schools must provide sex and relationship education. Figure 2 – Statutory teaching of religious education and sex and relationship education
