In Key Stages One and Two, the UK government already recently accelerated the curriculum in core subjects, especially in Literacy and Numeracy. It is always a very tricky process to absorb a new and accelerated curriculum, especially where it presumes, for a Year 5 pupil, for example, that s/he already had the accelerated curriculum in Years 1-4, which is not the case in the first year of change. Thanks to hard-working pupils and dedicated and talented teachers, however, we have successfully negotiated the new curriculum in Years 1-5.
