Primary curriculum prioritisation resource for 2021/22

The NCETM has recently published a substantial curriculum prioritisation resource for 2021/22, consisting of a curriculum map for each of Years 1-6 with accompanying downloadable PowerPoints (currently available for the first units).

The curriculum maps are structured around the ready-to-progress criteria set out in the DfE 2020 guidance, and supported by classroom slides and associated pedagogy from the NCETM Primary Mastery Professional Development materials.

The resource design recognises the disruption faced by schools over the past two years, which may have resulted in areas of the curriculum that children have missed or learned less securely from home. Teachers are advised to check pupils’ understanding of listed areas of prior learning before starting on a new unit.

You can find the resource at ncetm.org.uk/primaryprioritisation.
