No Gorki in the 21st century the Prmary National Curriculum includes Maths, English, Science, PE, ICT, History, Geograohy, Music, Art, D&T, MFL, Citizenship, etc... Can't remember it all as I retired seven year ago but it's all compulsory nowadays. And guess what? It's all change again in 2014 I believe. Usually one class teacher is responsible for delivering all the subjects, though if you're lucky the might be a music and/or specialist PE teacher around. No surprising if teachers have to use additional resources to deliver this to the standard required.
