Answer
The curriculum gives teachers and schools the flexibility to deliver tailored lessons to meet the needs of the pupils in the classroom. It is a matter for individual schools, using their delegated budget, to choose the resources, materials and textbooks they use to support their teaching. It is also up to schools to determine their provision within school libraries, including the availability of the Lost Lives book to pupils.
