Designing a learner-centred curriculum for 16- to 24-year-olds with learning difficulties

This guidance sets out principles on which the curriculum should be planned, regardless of whether the learner is in a school or college or with a training provider. There are five benchmarks in the materials. These can be used as an evaluation tool when set against the four values we have identified as priorities. Also included in these materials are examples of how different institutions tailor a curriculum for the needs of individual learners. (See 'Post-16 learning' in the left-hand menu.)
