Mumsnet Learning
In November we wrote about the revised draft National Curriculum. Last month an updated version was published. We've got the important highlights explaining how the changes will affect core and foundation subjects.
If your child attends an academy this doesn't affect you, so stop reading and go take a look at something else – we recommend the activities in the Learn at Home Zone.
We've also got three new Easter-themed printables for the youngest members of your family.
