I am deeply concerned that, in 2025, we continue to deliver a national curriculum designed for the traditional career paths of the 1980s rather than the technologies and opportunities of today.

Add Economics & Business to national curriculum (for entrepreneurial skills)
We want the government to introduce Economics and Business to the national curriculum for Key Stage 1, 2 and 3.
Make British politics compulsory in the secondary school curriculum
British politics should be compulsory in secondary school to help prepare young people for the responsibility of voting in elections. The fundamentals of British politics and how to vote: we think these things which are lacking in the British education system.
Mandatory Political Education in Secondary Schools
As the voting age is lowered to 16, young people need mandatory political education in all secondary schools to ensure they can make informed democratic choices before they turn 18.
Introduce mandatory sewing & textile lessons into the National Curriculum & EYFS
I ask the Government to consider introducing specific, mandatory lessons on sewing & textile skills into the National Curriculum, and Early Years Foundation Stage for nursery children. Currently, nurseries may teach sewing via continuous provision but it may not continue for all children in Year 1.
Introduce Law as a GCSE subject
Introduce GCSE Law to the national education curriculum. I feel the current curriculum can sometimes fail to inspire and motivate students.
