Redefining Work was concerned with the ways our society may function in future and the assumptions we might make about the nature and pattern of work within it.

The RSA's New Curriculum project is a mainstream contribution to the strategic development of compulsory school education in Britain. At its heart is the development of a curriculum that places as much emphasis on the learning of critical thinking skills or 'competences' as it does on the traditional transmission of facts from teacher to pupil.\n\nOpening Minds: Education for the 21st century was published in June 1999, was the final report of the 'Redefining the Curriculum' consultative stage.

Project schools have developed a number of innovative curriculum initiatives, which they are now putting into practice.\n\nRecords comprise the main published reports of the project
