Curriculum for Excellence Parents Conference
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2009
To Parent Council Chairs
Following on from our Curriculum for Excellence Parents Conference held on 26 September 2009, I attach my presentation and the written responses to your questions in the form of a Frequently Asked Questions paper.
You may also with to look at parent information on the learning and teaching scotland website -
www.ltscotland.org.uk which has a link to Curriculum for Excellence which then has a link to a section for parents. You will also be aware of the Parentzone web-site.
As shared at the conference, Headteachers will now work with Parent Councils to discuss wider communication and engagement of their parent body in developing a greater understanding of Curriculum for Excellence and the changes arising from implementation.
We are currently preparing our communication strategy which will include communications to parents and we will involve parents in working with us to develop this.
