Abstract	In this article, we compare Curriculum 2000 and Higher Still, recent reforms of post-16 education in England and Scotland respectively. Current and earlier research on the unification of academic and vocational learning in England, Scotland and other European countries is drawn on in order to suggest areas for mutual learning to inform future curriculum and qualifications reform, both north and south of the Border. We highlight five of these: the conduct of the policy process, issues of progression, assessment, approaches to vocational education and key/core skills, and in our conclusion, we speculate on the possibility of either convergence or divergence of the English and Scottish upper secondary education systems as both evolve.
