Reviewing the Post - 16 curriculum
|
| |
Project description
|
|
A working party set up to do the following:
- To review the various options for study post-16 and
identify the strengths and weaknesses of each option (A-levels,
IB, Pre-U, Highers);
- To review the 'intellectual experience' offered by the
option pursued at UCS and identify ways in which it could
be developed by (i) offering further subject choice and
(ii) providing opportunities for 'intellectual enrichment'.
- To produce recommendations for Heads of Department/Academic
Boards concerning the medium term direction of post-16
education at UCS as well as a clear strategy for intellectual
enrichment post-16.
- To identify aspects of 11-16 curriculum which need to
be received as a follow-on working party from this one.
