HC Deb 12 March 1999 vol 327 c431W
Mr. Keetch

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what plans he has to review outdoor education in the context of the National Curriculum; and if he will make a statement. [75857]

Mr. Charles Clarke

The review of the National Curriculum for the year 2000 is looking at all areas of the school curriculum. This includes outdoor and adventurous activities, which is one of six areas of activity in the National Curriculum for Physical Education. We will be consulting widely on proposals for the revised National Curriculum in the summer.
