“The curriculum reflects what we value and what we seek for our children and young people. It should enable all of the young people of Glasgow to flourish as individuals, reach high levels of achievement, and make valuable contributions to society… The curriculum includes the totality of experiences which are planned for children and young people through their education, wherever they are being educated.”

Glasgow City Council, May 2024
