  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nSection 101(1) of the Education Act 2002 requires the curriculum for every maintained school in Wales to include a basic curriculum. Subsection (3) enables the Welsh Ministers to make an Order amending subsection (1) by adding further requirements.\nThis Order, which is made under subsection (3), amends the requirements to provide work-related education (added to the basic curriculum by the Basic Curriculum for Wales (Amendment) Order 2003 (S.I. 2003/932 (W.122))) by extending the age range so that it also applies to those pupils in the third key stage.\nFor the first, second and third key stages of a pupil’s education, the National Curriculum for Wales comprises the core and other foundation subjects specified in section 105 of the Education Act 2002. This Order amends those other foundation subjects.\nThe amendments made by this Order omit the “technology” and “art” subjects and replace them with “information and communication technology”, “design and technology” and “art and design”.",
