New Curriculum for Wales

The New Curriculum... "aims to help each school develop its own curriculum, enabling their learners to develop towards the four purposes of the curriculum - the starting point and aspiration for every child and young person in Wales." (Hwb.gov.wales)

The Curriculum for Wales guidance sets out:

  • the curriculum requirements set out in legislation for all learners aged 3 to 16, to ensure all schools cover the same core learning and to secure a consistency of approach for learners across Wales
  • guidelines for schools in developing their curricula
  • expectations around assessment arrangements to support learner progression
