What does Welsh Government's Curriculum for Wales: the journey to curriculum roll-out say?

'Schools should adopt their curriculum and begin to implement it, as agreed by the headteacher and the governing body. Schools should refine their curriculum design as their learners progress on a continuing basis. Schools should reflect on the effectiveness of their curriculum and use that insight to improve.'

'Adopting a curriculum is the beginning of an ongoing period of curriculum development and refinement. The curriculum should be continuously evolving, striving for higher expectations, better supported well-being and responding to learners’ changing needs, supported by evolving and improving learning and teaching.'
