5 Scottish Curriculum for Excellence with Julie Sandlilands

The Scottish Curriculum for Excellence is 'neither a curriculum nor excellent'. In this podcast I sit down with Julie Sandilands teacher, education commentator & Scottish Union for Education Board Member to elucidate what children are and are not learning through this nebulous framework.  We will be part of a panel at the Festival of Ideas in London for SUE to consider how England might learn from Scotland's mistakes. 


Thanks for listening, if you think what I do is valuable please consider becoming a substack supporter for 4 per month, 30 per year or 250 founding membership allow me to continue to spend the time researching and reporting on these important issues.
