  The National Curriculum is now seen as the minimum , rather than the whole , curriculum. This text explores the issues which flow from this, looking particulary at what teachers, parents and others perceive to be important , and what therefore demands a place in the curriculum, in both primary and secondary education - whether it be moral education, sport, core skills , religious education and economic awareness - or the more narrowly competing demands of the National Curriculum subjects themselves. The book seeks to help teachers develop a balanced curriculum which can be justified to themselves, to governors, to parents and to OFSTED.
