STAGES OF CURRICULUM CHANGE

5.EVALUATION

Measuring learning outcomes: the value of regular and high quality assessment

Specific pieces of research that look in detail at particular areas of the curriculum.

Support to school supervision

1. ANALYSIS

Institutional Analysis Assessment of the system's capacity to undertake reforms

KEY QUESTIONS FOR ANALYSIS • Is the curriculum fit for purpose? • Who learns and who does not? • Who does what and how? • What do key stakeholders feel about the curriculum? • What is the cost of reform?

-Understanding of the curriculum, the different objectives of educational policy, the ideology of development, institutional context, drivers and resistance to change. -This establishes an evidence base in its broadest sense as the family area of the teachers and the different teaching materials.

4.IMPLEMENTATION

Guarantee of training and support for teachers to get to know the new curriculum.

3.DEVELOPMENT

SIX COMMON PROBLEMS

LACK OF FINANCE FOR PROPER REFORM

A CURRICULUM DEVELOPED FOR ALL BY ALL

LANGUAGE AND LEARNING

CURRICULUM IS OFTEN TOO AMBITIOUS AND FAILS TO ACHIEVE THE LEARNING OBJECTIVES

GETTING STUCK IN SILOS

MANAGE CONSULTATIONS TO BUILD OWNERSHIP

TESTING AND PILOTING

A proper test will allow various adjustments to be made well before the curriculum is carried out and thus avoid costly mistakes.

PREPARING FOR IMPLEMENTATION

Of particular importance is the area of Assessment and teacher training

At the process stage, collaboration and coordination between different members of the curriculum family is important.

The curriculum for each subject and each stage or year provides adequate details so that:

Examination and assessment bodies can give the test pass of what has been learned.

Book writers and publishers create timely learning materials

Teachers can share the curriculum

2.DESIGN

Changes regarding the expected number of days, hours of schooling

Changes to the structure of schooling

Decisions around the language of instruction

3. Working groups

2. Mid-level technical oversight group or task force

1. High level steering committee
