Every state-funded school must offer a curriculum which is balanced and broadly based and which
• promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils at the school and of society, and,
• prepares pupils at the school for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life.
All state schools are also required to make provision for a daily act of collective worship and must teach religious education to pupils at every key stage.
Maintained schools in England are legally required to follow the statutory National Curriculum which sets out in programmes of study, on the basis of key stages, subject content for core and other foundation subjects that should be taught to all pupils. All schools must publish their school curriculum by subject and academic year online.
All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), drawing on good practice. Schools are also free to include other subjects or topics of their choice in planning and designing their own programme of education.
