In 2022, Wales will implement a new curriculum in all schools, affecting
468,383 pupils and allowing
22,000 teachers to
design their own curricula within a national framework. Cardiff Met’s research underpinned the upskilling of teachers in
33 schools to be change managing creative enquirers thereby impacting the professional practice of
1,045 staff and the learning experience of
14,900 pupils. It’s success led to over
300 additional schools embarking on the programme to facilitate the new curriculum.
“Pupils’ work also improved in quality, with the work before the intervention being cross moderated with my Head of Department as level 4, and the work after the intervention as level 5-6. The work demonstrates that they have a greater understanding of each of the terms through the use of tone on the face, the quality of their presentation in comparison to previous work, and the addition of detail.”
