HC Deb 14 June 1994 vol 244 c486W
Mr. Dalyell

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what guidance he gives to schools on the teaching of ecological subjects.

Mr. Robin Squire

The national curriculum is the focus for teaching and learning in schools. Ecological questions are addressed through subjects such as science, technology and geography. My right hon. Friend's priority is to revise the national curriculum requirements, and he has no plans to publish additional guidance on ecological matters specifically.
