Safe at School broadly welcomes changes to National Curriculum science
Safe at School, a campaign of SPUC, has "broadly welcomed" the programme of study for science at Key Stages 1 and 2, in the new National Curriculum published today. Safe at School is pleased to see that at Key Stage 1, the new curriculum does not stipulate that children are required to identify the human sexual organs - just as in the current curriculum. The new curriculum contains non-statutory "Notes and guidance" with a suggested list of main body parts. No sexual organs are on the list. [SPUC, 8 July]
