Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assessment of the National Curriculum has evolved from the first blueprint of the TGAT Report through a series of policy decisions and early experience of implementation. The pace of change, the complexity of the proposed assessment system and the political rhetoric associated with it have served to confuse and so obscure the trends in policy and practice. This book offers an account of that system and explains why it is now emerging in a substantially different form from that envisaged by its originators.

Download or read book The Impact of the National Curriculum on the Teaching of Five Year Olds written by Theo Cox and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1994. One of the most neglected areas of research and thus writing is the world of the infant school child. Those who know it best are teachers who tend not to write. Those who write most are academics and even they venture rarely into this area. This book is based on research funded by the University of Wales. A number of teachers in a Welsh LEA were interviewed over time as the National Curriculum was being introduced up to Key Stage 1. The structured interviews covered a wide range of topics related to the anticipated and actual efforts of the National Curriculum at this key stage including curriculum planning, assessment, teaching methods, and organization. Teachers' attitudes to the curriculum were explored through a short attitude test. The resulting data provides in depth the first such examination and is a resource not only in itself but for all those researchers on change agents and restructuring.

Download or read book Teachers Pupils and Primary Schooling written by Paul Croll and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 1996 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Primary Assessment, Curriculum and Experience (PACE) project is a unique study of the implementation of the National Curriculum at primary school level in England. The combination of extensive interviews with teachers, headteachers and pupils and detailed observation in classrooms provides the most thorough account available of this major educational innovation. The editor and contributors to this text are all members of the PACE team. Teachers, Pupils and Primary Schooling extends the account in Changing English Primary Schools? (Cassell, 1994) to focus on the National Curriculum as children move from Key Stage 1 (ages 5-7) to Key Stage 2 (ages 7-9). The study looks at aspects of continuity in the curriculum, teacher professionalism and pupil perceptions, which have emerged in the analysis of data from the project. Additionally, it incorporates the modification of the National Curriculum following a review by Sir Ron Dearing in 1994 and is informed by a context of uncertainty, critique and constant policy change. All those interested in the impact of the educational changes of the late 1980s and the first half of the 1990s, whether they be academics, teachers, student teachers, school governors or policy-makers, will find this book vital reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Impact of School Infrastructure on Learning: A Synthesis of the Evidence provides an excellent literature review of the resources that explore the areas of focus for improved student learning, particularly the aspiration for “accessible, well-built, child-centered, synergetic and fully realized learning environments.†? Written in a style which is both clear and accessible, it is a practical reference for senior government officials and professionals involved in the planning and design of educational facilities, as well as for educators and school leaders. --Yuri Belfali, Head of Division, Early Childhood and Schools, OECD Directorate for Education and Skills This is an important and welcome addition to the surprisingly small, evidence base on the impacts of school infrastructure given the capital investment involved. It will provide policy makers, practitioners, and those who are about to commission a new build with an important and comprehensive point of reference. The emphasis on safe and healthy spaces for teaching and learning is particularly welcome. --Harry Daniels, Professor of Education, Department of Education, Oxford University, UK This report offers a useful library of recent research to support the, connection between facility quality and student outcomes. At the same time, it also points to the unmet need for research to provide verifiable and reliable information on this connection. With such evidence, decisionmakers will be better positioned to accurately balance the allocation of limited resources among the multiple competing dimensions of school policy, including the construction and maintenance of the school facility. --David Lever, K-12 Facility Planner, Former Executive Director of the Interagency Committee on School Construction, Maryland Many planners and designers are seeking a succinct body of research defining both the issues surrounding the global planning of facilities as well as the educational outcomes based on the quality of the space provided. The authors have finally brought that body of evidence together in this well-structured report. The case for better educational facilities is clearly defined and resources are succinctly identified to stimulate the dialogue to come. We should all join this conversation to further the process of globally enhancing learning-environment quality! --David Schrader, AIA, Educational Facility Planner and Designer, Former Chairman of the Board of Directors, Association for Learning Environments (A4LE)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential text unpacks major transformations in the study of learning and human development and provides evidence for how science can inform innovation in the design of settings, policies, practice, and research to enhance the life path, opportunity and prosperity of every child. The ideas presented provide researchers and educators with a rationale for focusing on the specific pathways and developmental patterns that may lead a specific child, with a specific family, school, and community, to prosper in school and in life. Expanding key published articles and expert commentary, the book explores a profound evolution in thinking that integrates findings from psychology with biology through sociology, education, law, and history with an emphasis on institutionalized inequities and disparate outcomes and how to address them. It points toward possible solutions through an understanding of and addressing the dynamic relations between a child and the contexts within which he or she lives, offering all researchers of human development and education a new way to understand and promote healthy development and learning for diverse, specific youth regardless of race, socioeconomic status, or history of adversity, challenge, or trauma. The book brings together scholars and practitioners from the biological/medical sciences, the social and behavioral sciences, educational science, and fields of law and social and educational policy. It provides an invaluable and unique resource for understanding the bases and status of the new science, and presents a roadmap for progress that will frame progress for at least the next decade and perhaps beyond.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The child-centred principles of early years education - which emphasize play and holistic learning - are being challenged by the implementation of a subject-based National Curriculum. The contributors to this book explore this challenge and offer some ways of meeting it practically and productively. Issues covered include: pedagogical issues, such as the cross-curricular, topic-based teaching; teacher's attitudes to subject knowledge; assessment issues, including baseline assessment at the age of five; and parental attitudes to the National Curriculum and its content at Key Stage 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Curriculum has been with us since 1988 and yet it continues to arouse controversy and disquiet. In this collection, major educationalists debate its history, purpose, achievements and future direction. Some of the contributors write from first-hand experience of the original development, but while Eric Bolton and Chris Woodhead are largely satisfied with the result, Paul Black believes that the drive for simple tests could undermine all its achievements. Other analyses of the overall context and shape of The National Curriculum draw on academic and school perspectives, including that of Paul Hirst who questions the place of subjects at the centre of its structure.
