Palestine: Curriculum

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Chapman of Darlington on 4 December 2025 (HL12406), whether they have a framework for assessing Palestinian Authority curriculum reform targets; and if so, how that framework differs from that used by the European Commission.

Answer

I refer the Noble Lord to the answer provided in the House of Commons on 16 December 2025 to Question 98592, which - for ease of reference - is reproduced below:

We welcome the Palestinian Authority (PA) contracting an independent audit firm to complete a review of curriculum reform in early 2026, and we would expect the results of that audit to be made public. The UK will continue to press for implementation of the PA's reform commitments, and will assess progress in the education area based on the audit results.
