Ombudsman for Children's Annual Report 2022: Office of the Ombudsman for Children

Dr. Niall Muldoon:

I think so. I was at an event two weeks ago with the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment, which is reviewing the primary curriculum. It will be much more about the child as opposed to the curriculum. There will be much more movement in classes. There will be much more outdoor work and encouragement of the child's holistic skills. If a child is good at singing, dancing, poetry or gardening they will have these opportunities as opposed to having to sit down and follow a curriculum.
