Norfolk LEA:  Changes to 14-19 Curriculum

Work Related Learning – Guidance for Norfolk Schools

 

Opportunities for students to participate in programmes of work-related learning have increased significantly over recent years and will continue to expand from September 2004 when work-related learning for all at Key Stage 4 is a statutory requirement.

 

This guidance document describes forthcoming changes to the 14 to 19 curriculum and, in particular, proposals for work-related learning.  It also sets out the management, curriculum and health and safety issues that schools and the LEA must consider when students are on work-related learning placements with employers or attending colleges or training providers as part of this developing area of activity.

 

Your sincerely,

Director of Education
