KS3 The Ambitious Years: Why Years 7-9 matter more than we think (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780995668720)

In KS3: The Ambitious Years, Mary Myatt sets out a clear and practical approach to curriculum and teaching in Years 7-9.

Drawing on research, classroom practice and years of working with schools and trusts, this book challenges the idea that KS3 is a holding stage and shows how it can become the most powerful phase in a pupil's education.

Inside, you'll find:

• Why KS3 has been underpowered, and the consequences for KS4
• What strong KS3 looks like in practice
• How to design a curriculum built on depth, not coverage
• The role of reading, vocabulary and knowledge in securing understanding
• Practical steps for leaders and teachers to implement change

This is not a book of quick fixes.

It is a call for clarity, coherence and ambition, for every pupil.
