I am struggling to find information about the following things:
- What is DS actually going to learn during his time at school? As in knowledge and facts? (And I don't mean how to use the internet to teach himself). Where is the actual syllabus?
- Where is the hard research (preferably non-Scottish) upon which this new approach is based?
- Where is the proof that it works and that children will actually be any better off? Will my child leave primary school actually knowing anything at all?
I have looked in depth at the official CfE stuff and it does not answer my questions. The "parents' toolkit" is worse than useless. I will be eternally grateful to anyone who can help answer these questions, or direct me to where I can find answers. Because right now, for DS's sake, I am seriously regretting moving north of the border.
