Before I start I would like to introduce myself, my names Munnas Ahmed, and I would like to welcome you all to a short presentation I have put together on the implications of changes to the 14-19 year olds curriculum. Its a big change in the UK towards education and is actually the biggest reform since 30 years ago. Many of you may be aware or may have heard about the new reform, but hopefully the presentation will give you an insight to the new changes.
ok, so the aim of the presentation is To provide reasons on why the reform is taking place. I will be looking at the curriculum, the qualifications and changes. A huge change and there will be changes affecting pupils and teachers 30 years since the last reform, we will be looking at benefits of the reform And finally so disadvantages of the reform.
The world is changing rapidly. Changes in the global economy and technology is driving the need of a workforce that possesses vocational skills. The UK is falling behind for low participation rates for post 16 UK is ranked 25 th out of 29 developed countries. By encouraging pupils to stay in education it increases their job prospects and provides them with a better chance of finding a suitable job. Theory based is not always relevant to everybody, teaching needs to recognise the requirements of business and industry.
Further training for new courses and teaching strategies under the new curriculum , requiring ongoing learning and research. Greater diversity providing high level job satisfaction . Opportunity to understand , help and guide all students from all age groups tailoring to each individual.
