With the introduction of the Curriculum for Wales, schools and other educational settings across Wales are designing, using and refining their curriculum to ensure all children and young people are supported to reach their full potential.
Following National Network events held across Wales, case studies are now available on Hwb with schools showing how their curriculum is supporting equity, helping children progress in their learning and fulfil their potential.
The events gave practitioners an opportunity to share their experiences and gain valuable insights into approaches others are taking to ensure their curriculum supports equity and inclusion for all.
The case studies include information about approaches to additional learning provision, becoming a trauma informed school, overcoming economic disadvantage and more.
A directory of organisations from the events that can support schools and settings with equity and inclusion is also available on Hwb.
