"This thorough exploration of the secondary school curriculum draws heavily on the latest Ofsted framework to support colleagues in designing and reviewing the impact of their school on pupils' capacity to fully flourish. Each chapter introduces key areas of learning, provides case study material, is evidence-informed and offers questions to the reader that seek to build reflection and to encourage deep thinking. Highly recommended."
- Dame Alison Peacock, Chief Executive, Chartered College of Teaching
“…We live in a diverse world with differing and multiple needs of our student communities, which as educators, we must accommodate. Refreshingly, each chapter provides pragmatic and an evidence-based approach to what works, whilst also deconstructing some the pervasive myths about secondary curriculum, such as the decoupling of skills and knowledge.
After reading this book, it leaves me feeling more ambitious about the future of the secondary curriculum."
- Adam Tate, Senior Lecturer in Academic Practice, Nottingham Trent University
