Curriclum for Excellence
Scotland’s curriculum, Curriculum for Excellence, places learners at the heart of education. At its centre are four fundamental capacities (Successful Learners, Confident Individuals, Responsible Citizens and Effective Contributors). These capacities reflect and recognise the lifelong nature of education and learning.
• They recognise the need for all children and young people to know themselves as individuals and to develop their relationships with others, in families and in communities.
• They recognise the knowledge, skills and attributes that children and young people need to acquire to thrive in our interconnected, digital and rapidly changing world.
• They enable children and young people to be democratic citizens and active shapers of that world.
