Six curricular questions of Michael Gove

Abstract

This letter to Michael Gove started life as a formal submission to England’s Department for Education in March 2013. It was in response to highly controversial government proposals (spearheaded and advocated by Mr. Gove) to change the English National Curriculum in History. After three weeks the Secretary of State had not replied to the letter, so as a blog the article was disseminated by the Cambridge Primary Review website (though those links are now broken), Twitter and elsewhere.
