"This report therefore presents the considered response of subject specialists to the current state of our subject, our analysis of how it has developed its current strengths and weakniesses, and our recommendations for how it should develop in the future. This report represents the first stage in what we hope will be a longer-term project of curriculum development. We aim eventually to develop a detailed model for history provision at 14-19; the review of the 14-19 curriculum carried out by Mike Tomlinson encourages the hope that there will be scope for such curriculum development in the near future." - Preface
"The content reflects a common core of the curriculum in Social Studies for this level in the eastern Carribean sub-region and other Caribbean territories."
