Preparing for life – not just for exams. • The National Curriculum in England KS3 and 4 framework document published September 2013 says: • 2.1Every state-funded school must offer a curriculum which is balanced and broadly basedand which: promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils at the school and of society, and • prepares pupils at the school for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life. • 2.3All state schools are also required to make provision for a daily act of collective worship and must teach religious education to pupils at every key stage and sex and relationship education to pupils in secondary education. • 2.5 All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE)
