              Redefining the Curriculum

              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. Subsequently, the RSA has been working with a number of schools to make a reality of the ideas in the report. It recommended a competence-based curriculum framed around five sets of competences: for learning, managing information, managing people, managing situations, and citizenship. 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
