Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Jenkin of Roding (Conservative). It was answered by Lord Adonis (Labour) on Tuesday, 24 October 2006.
Schools: Science
- Question
- Whether they support the introduction of the new science syllabus for schools, Twenty First Century Science; and whether progress in getting the syllabus into schools is satisfactory.
- Answer
-
My Lords, the Government support the introduction of the new key stage 4 programme of study for science. It is as rigorous as the previous one; it is more engaging for all pupils; and it provides a sound basis for further study of science at A-level and beyond. The implementation of the new GCSEs will be formally monitored, but early feedback from schools has been largely positive.
