HC Deb 08 February 1994 vol 237 c173W
Mr. Bayley

To ask the Secretary of State for Education how many changes have been made to the national curriculum since the guide to the national curriculum was published in 1991; how many revised versions of the guide have been published since then; and if the current version is up to date.

Mr. Robin Squire

The second edition of the "Parent's Guide to the National Curriculum", published in June 1992, contained two changes to the curriculum on which the Government were consulting at the time the first edition was published. This current version does not reflect the changes to key stage 4 resulting from the Dearing report, which have not yet been given statutory effect.
