Thank you, Joyce. I don't expect any further delays in releasing the resources that I've identified today. I think you're right—the concept of respect is one that will underpin much of the delivery of this curriculum. You also made a very important point: if any of us take time to listen to children and young people, they will tell you what we're providing for them at the moment is not good enough, and they want better provision. If we are a Parliament and a Government that truly listens to pupil voice, then we need to act, and that's one of the reasons why I'm doing this today.
