On the 2nd July, the DfE released their ‘guidance for full opening – schools’. It provides all secondary schools with a detailed plan of what key measures should be implemented to help ensure children are able to return back to school safely and allow as full a curriculum as possible.

The guidance states the DfE’s expectations and outlines the key principles that underpin their advice on curriculum planning. It sets out specific points of interest for Key Stages 3, 4 and 5, with a focus on providing extra support to help catch up on content missed and ensuring exams and assessments are as fair as possible.

The guidance also references the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) report ‘COVID-19 Support Guide for Schools’, which stresses the importance of professional development in order to support curriculum planning or effective use of technology.
