We came to an understanding that civic, social and political education and physical education would be merged as a subject called well-being. I understand the Department intends to issue a circular to all schools advising them to limit young people's choice of short courses. Will it also use this great circular to suggest that the future of history be strengthened by having it specifically mentioned and encouraged that it be safeguarded as a core fundamental subject knowledge for the future for us all?
