This presentation was designed and delivered at the beginning of a CPD day we did on ensuring the rigour and alignment of our curriculum: both whole-school and in individual subjects. It goes into 7 key areas of curriculum design: Challenge Enjoyment Progression Relevance Coherence Personalisation Choice Each one is defined and explanations are included for the speaker as to what these mean on a practical level. Links to research are included and the end of the presentation focuses on the implementation of the key facets and mapping how they can be evidenced in e.g. a curriculum map. Staff found this clear and concise and helped foster a sense of collaboration when it comes to curriculum planning - hopefully it can form the base of curriculum thinking in your context too.
