Abstract
During this project, principals and teachers in 18 primary schools and teachers and pupils in 12 post-primary schools in Northern Ireland were interviewed about aspects of the English, mathematics and science curriculum during the period of transition between Key Stage 2 (KS2) and Key Stage 3 (KS3). The research revealed a wide diversity of opinion and experience and the main body of the report gives extended details of the findings. The final section points to some important issues which arise from the study and which merit attention in the context of helping to improve pupils’ learning experiences during the period of transition from primary to secondary education.
