The purpose of this research is to examine the relationship between children and youngpeople's (CYP) civic engagement and curriculum reform, specifically the current program ofeducational reform in Wales resulting from Professor Graham Donaldson's Independentreview of curriculum and assessment (Successful futures, 2015).Whilst CYP are precluded from some forms of civic engagement (national elections, juryduty etc) they do have other opportunities to engage in civil action in the form of forexample, school elections, youth parliaments, voluntarism, environmentalism and politicalactivism.However, with the UK government acknowledging falling democratic and politicalparticipation (Uberoi, 2015), especially amongst the young, the debate surroundingcitizenship pedagogy has intensified. In this context the current reform offers a uniqueopportunity to directly compare two educational approaches and their impact on theperceived problem of falling civil engagement among the young.At the heart of this research then is the question of whether civic engagement is best 'taught'through the official curriculum or 'learnt' through experience.This study will continue the collection and analysis of WMCS data and in so doing,contribute to the data set available on the WISERD multi-cohort study, this in turn can beutilized by other researchers.The literature review found no CYP voice focused research relating specifically to the notionof civic engagement and curriculum reform - although much exists in relation to CYP voiceand curriculum design more generally. It is in this gap that this study hopes to further thecurrent understanding in the field and contribute to the current literature.

本研究的目的是检验儿童与威尔士人的公民参与和课程改革之间的关系，特别是当前威尔士教育改革计划，该计划是由格雷厄姆唐纳森教授的课程和评估独立审查产生的（成功的未来，2015年）。（全国选举，陪审团义务等）他们确实有其他机会以例如学校选举，青年议会，非营利组织，环保主义和政治激进主义的形式参与民事诉讼。然而，随着英国政府承认民主和政治参与的下降，（Uberoi，2015），特别是在年轻人中，围绕公民教育的辩论已经加剧。在这种背景下，当前的改革提供了一个独特的机会，直接比较两种教育方法及其对年轻人公民参与度下降的影响。这项研究的核心是公民参与最好是通过官方课程“教授”还是通过经验“学习”的问题。这项研究将继续收集和分析WMCS数据，并在此过程中，文献回顾发现，没有专门涉及公民参与和课程改革概念的以公民声音为重点的研究--尽管存在很多与公民声音和课程设计有关的研究。正是在这一空白之处，本研究希望能进一步了解该领域的现状，并对现有文献有所贡献.
