Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what progress has been made on appointing people or groups to develop curriculum content following the recent tender process.

In light of the government’s response to the Curriculum and Assessment Review, the department has now completed a tender process for the procurement of suppliers who will draft the reformed Programmes of Study for the National Curriculum.

The names of suppliers appointed to the framework and offered call off contracts will be confirmed in due course.
