Former Secretary of State for Education Kenneth Baker claims that
secondary education has become a five-year programme with a single,
narrow aim: to prepare pupils for high-stakes GCSE exams at 16.
From 2015, all young people will be legally required to stay in
education or training until they are 18. Kenneth Baker sees this as
a historic opportunity to re-think the aims and structure of
English education. He argues that the National Curriculum should
extend only to the age of 14 and that there should be four distinct
pathways from 14-18 to take account of young people's emerging
interests talents and ambitions: Liberal Arts; Technical; Sports
and Creative Arts; and Career. All pathways will provide a broad
education, but each will have a distinctive character matched to
the talents and ambitions of individual students. In 14-18 - A New
Vision for Secondary Education, Kenneth Baker builds a compelling
case for reform, with contributions from a range of educationalists
who draw on the history of English education, practice elsewhere in
the world, and their experiences. An essential read for anyone
interested in the future of secondary education.
