Curriculum for Excellence Toolkit, 27/01/10 [S]
The Cabinet Secretary for Education, Michael Russell, has launched a toolkit with case studies, film clips, images and a bank of slides designed to help teachers talk confidently to parents about the new curriculum.
The toolkit is primarily an on-line resource for headteachers and teachers. The elements in print are posters for school notice boards and leaflets for parents that explain each level - early years, primary and secondary.
The Cabinet Secretary said: "As changes to learning and teaching begin to take place in schools around Scotland, we know that parents want to hear more about what's going on. And our research shows that they want to hear from those who are teaching their children".
