A significant number of primary schools believe that their fate and reputation are dependent on data-driven inspections that take little account of the totality of the education they provide - and who could blame them? Because of this, many schools sacrifice an emphasis on the broad curriculum, especially in Years 5 and 6, in the interests of a more narrow focus on English and maths. In 'Reclaiming the Curriculum' Bill Laar and Jackie Holderness redress the balance and present a cornucopia of case-study examples from schools who are bucking this trend by providing their pupils with specialist content that transcends the core curriculum. The book features a diverse variety of school initiatives - and paints a vivid picture of how the provision of such enriching activities can be made compatible with the school's educational programme.
