+AN ALTERNATIVE PRIMARY CURRICULUM FRAMEWORK(Cambridge Primary Review final report, chapter 14)
+
“The Cambridge Primary Review is for the longer
term, not the next election... and it is not just for the transient architects and agents of policy. It is for all who invest daily,
deeply and for life in this vital phase of education,
especially children, parents and teachers.”

+Purpose of the network
The network aims to encourage, support and celebrate practice that:
builds on the ideas, evidence and proposals in the final report of the Cambridge Primary Review;
builds on the research and practice of others who share the CPR’s commitment to evidence, vision and quality in primary education;
advances professional and community empowerment;
improves the quality of primary education experienced by the nation’s children, especially those who suffer material, social or educational disadvantage.
+To explore and share the practice that is behind each of the CPR aims…

+Scoping events
The aim of these seminars is to facilitate shared experience
Discussion around each of the aims from the CPR report.
Members bring along a piece of evidence which they believe encapsulates that aim in practice in their school (this could be video, a child’s work, planning documents etc. )
Resources are the focus of discussion to explore areas of commonality and difference when putting the CPR into practice.
+Scoping event timetable
+Learning walks
+Murton CPS: learning walk feedback
We really appreciate the positive feedback we received, thank you! It's always nice to have receptive visitors in school, as it
reboots our imaginations and just from having these professional discussions it allows us to clarify thoughts etc
and identify next steps. (Host school)
I have thoroughly enjoyed the visit and will take away many ideas to try and discuss back in my school (Learning walk
participant)
It has been really interesting to see how the theory is put into practice – how whole school ethos really is reflected across
the school (Learning walk participant)
Seeing curriculum work in practice, talking to staff and children, Fantastic opportunity for me.
