In this article, Ian Colwill and Nick Peacey provide an authoritative commentary on the publication of QCA's guidelines on developing the curriculum for pupils with learning difficulties. They link these guidelines to the recent review of the National Curriculum and identify some of the key contributions these guidelines can make to planning, teaching and assessment. The authors conclude by raising some challenging issues for future practice and enquiry. Ian Colwill and Nick Peacey were both principal managers at QCA with responsibility for Curriculum Co‐ordination and Support and Equal Opportunities and Access respectively. They co‐chaired the Steering Group for the curriculum guidelines project. Ian Colwill supervised the production of the booklets and the website.
