It identifies key 21st century mindsets and skills like being a lifelong learner, critical thinker, communicator, creator, and global collaborator. It envisions the next generation classroom as networked, focusing on problem solving with real-world challenges and authentic audiences.

- 55. Long-term educational goals have been replaced by short-term targets. Curriculum overload – many teachers believe far too much is prescribed for the time available. Loss of children's entitlement to a broad, balanced and rich curriculum – with arts, the humanities and science under threat. Tests have led to memorization and recall replacing understanding and inquiry as the key goal in the classroom.
- 56. "Politicization" of the curriculum with accompanying rhetoric of "standards". Pressure at start of primary school to begin formal lessons too early with tests for four and five-year-olds. Excessive prescription has led to loss of flexibility and autonomy for schools. Historic split between the "basics" and the rest of the timetable has led to "unacceptable" difference in the quality of provision between the two. Mistaken assumption that high standards in "the basics" can be achieved only by marginalizing the rest of the curriculum /learning.
