For the last two weeks of May, the Youth Shadow Panel and the sCAR team travelled across England holding high-level expert roundtables on the topics most commonly brought up by young people throughout our call for evidence and roadshows.

Zainab, a student from Manchester and AQA's Student Advisory Group Chair, joined our London roadshow workshop and shares more about the experience.

We have reviewed the Curriculum and Assessment Review’s interim report to see if, where, and how our key themes are mentioned.

We've had a first read of the interim report. Here's our initial thoughts.

Nashita (Year 12) and Jamal (Year 13), placement students at FEA, spoke to Youth Panellists, Yusuf and Tasnuva about the Shadow Review.

We have four in-person and two online workshops happening as part of our roadshow.

We've released our interim report: summarising our call for evidence and outlining young people’s thoughts on the education system

On 16 December 2024 members of our Youth Shadow Panel met with members of the Government’s Curriculum and Assessment Review Panel, including Prof. Becky Francis (Chair), Cassie Buchanan, Prof. Zongyi Deng, Jon Hutchinson, Dr Vanessa Ogden and Gary Aubin.

We are a team of young people from many of the Shadow Review’s partner organisations. We will be listening to, valuing, and understanding the opinions of young people aged 5 -19 across the English education system.

We are inviting children and young people across England to share your views on your experience of school or college. Share your opinions on what you like, don’t like, and how your education could be improved.

The Shadow Curriculum and Assessment Review is made up of young people and a group of youth organisations who represent the voices of thousands of young people.

In response to the Government’s Curriculum and Assessment Review, we launched the youth-led Shadow Review to ensure youth voices are central in shaping the future of education.
