  3. AN ALTERNATIVE PRIMARY CURRICULUM FRAMEWORK(Cambridge Primary Review final report, chapter 14)

  4. “The Cambridge Primary Review is for the longer term, not the next election... and it is not just for the transient architects and agents of policy. It is for all who invest daily, deeply and for life in this vital phase of education, especially children, parents and teachers.”

  5. CPR Network • Extending the work beyond the research • National initiative • 9 regional networks • Northeast & Cumbria Region www.primaryreview.org.uk

  6. A tool for thinking about curriculum change • Not a simple answer or solution • Not a toolkit • A tool that will help • To scaffold curriculum development • To frame interactions • As a lens for looking at practice • To assess what is working and why • An access point to think about the curriculum • A value based curriculum which can support practice

  7. How do the aims characterise practice in your school at the moment? TOP DIAMOND NINE ACTIVITY MIDDLE BOTTOM

  8. X EMBEDDING

  9. Purpose of the network The network aims to encourage, support and celebrate practice that: • builds on the ideas, evidence and proposals in the final report of the Cambridge Primary Review; • builds on the research and practice of others who share the CPR’s commitment to evidence, vision and quality in primary education; • advances professional and community empowerment; • improves the quality of primary education experienced by the nation’s children, especially those who suffer material, social or educational disadvantage.

  10. To explore and share the practice that is behind each of the CPR aims…

  11. Network activities http://www.dur.ac.uk/education/research/cambridge_primary_review/ • News • Events • Conferences • Scoping events • Learning walks • Resources • Case studies • Tools

  12. Scoping events • The aim of these seminars is to facilitate shared experience • Discussion around each of the aims from the CPR report. • Members bring along a piece of evidence which they believe encapsulates that aim in practice in their school (this could be video, a child’s work, planning documents etc. ) • Resources are the focus of discussion to explore areas of commonality and difference when putting the CPR into practice.

  14. Learning walks

  15. Murton CPS: learning walk feedback We really appreciate the positive feedback we received, thank you! It's always nice to have receptive visitors in school, as it reboots our imaginations and just from having these professional discussions it allows us to clarify thoughts etcand identify next steps. (Host school) I have thoroughly enjoyed the visit and will take away many ideas to try and discuss back in my school (Learning walk participant) It has been really interesting to see how the theory is put into practice – how whole school ethos really is reflected across the school (Learning walk participant) Seeing curriculum work in practice, talking to staff and children, Fantastic opportunity for me.
