Scotland’s curriculum – Curriculum for Excellence (CfE) – helps our children and young people gain the knowledge, skills and attributes needed for life in the 21st century. A refreshed narrative on Scotland’s curriculum, which sets CfE within the current context, was published in September 2019. It is available in both English and in Gaelic.

There are eight curriculum areas:

• Expressive arts
• Health and wellbeing
• Languages (including English, Gaidhlig, Gaelic learners and modern languages)
• Mathematics
• Religious and moral education
• Sciences
• Social studies
• Technologies.

Literacy, numeracy and health and wellbeing are recognised as being particularly important – these areas are seen as being the responsibility of all staff.
