Curriculum criteria are guidelines that establish standards for curriculum decision making. The objectives of a curriculum or teaching plan are the most important criteria, as they should be used to select learning experiences and evaluate student achievement. Criteria are stated as questions regarding whether goals are clearly defined and used by teachers and students, relate to society/community or individual learners, and guide the selection of learning materials and evaluation of achievement. A good curriculum is systematically planned and evaluated, reflects school aims, maintains a balance among all aims, promotes continuous learning, and arranges flexible opportunities that utilize effective experiences and resources to maximize student development.
