HC Deb 20 December 1990 vol 183 c273W
Mr. Andrew F. Bennett

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science when he now expects to lay draft statutory orders for geography in the national curriculum.

Mr. Eggar

My right hon. and learned Friend is considering the recommendations on geography in the national curriculum made to him recently by the National Curriculum Council. He hopes to issue a draft order for consultation in time to introduce national curriculum geography in key stages 1, 2 and 3 in autumn 1991.
