General Education
Every child and young person is entitled to expect their education to provide them with:
> a curriculum which is coherent from 3 to 18
> a broad general education, including well planned experiences and outcomes across all
the curriculum areas from early years through to S3
> a senior phase of education after S3 which provides opportunity to obtain qualifications as
well as to continue to develop the four capacities
> opportunities to develop skills for learning, skills for life and skills for work (including
career planning skills) with a continuous focus on literacy, numeracy and health and
wellbeing
> personal support to enable them to gain as much as possible from the opportunities
which Curriculum for Excellence can provide
> support in moving into positive and sustained destinations beyond school
It is the responsibility of schools and their partners to bring the experiences and outcomes
together and apply these entitlements to produce programmes for learning across a broad
curriculum, covering science, languages, mathematics, social studies (including Scottish
history), expressive arts, health and wellbeing, religious and moral education and technology.
Throughout this broad curriculum it is expected there will be an emphasis on Scottish contexts, Scottish cultures and Scotland’s history and place in the world. This planning should
demonstrate the principles for curriculum design: challenge and enjoyment; breadth;
progression; depth; personalisation and choice; coherence; relevance.
Learning should be made available in a range of ways including interdisciplinary learning and a range of opportunities which ensure a broad approach, enabling, for example, a coherent understanding of environmental issues.
The curriculum framework sets out what a child or young person should be able to do and the
experiences that contribute to their learning, rather than detailed definitions of content or
prescribed hours of study.
The experiences and outcomes are grouped into five levels - early (in which most children will undertake learning to the end of P1); first (in which most children will undertake learning by the end of P4); second (in which most children will undertake learning by the end of P7);
Qualified Primary teachers at all levels across the Edinburgh, East Lothian, Westlothian, the Borders and Falkirk areas. Home Tuition Scotland can help your child achieve Primary exam success.
