Text

Ms Hunter asked the Minister of Education, having agreed on the need for reform of his curriculum, which has not been reformed since 2007, and having stated that, as the Minister will be aware, following the announcement of the reform, many parents, teachers and experts voiced concerns that the reform process may be slightly rushed or ideologically driven, what he can say to reassure the public that the 16-week consultation process will be evidence-led, informed by classroom experience and, most importantly, open to change with a range of views being taken into account.
