CURRICULUM ISSUES AND
CONCERNS
1. Poor academic performance of
learners related to issues on the
varied implementation of the
curriculum among schools and
teachers.
2. Curricular innovations lack the
sense of ownership from
stakeholders.
3. Some curricular innovations are
results of bandwagon but are not
well supported by managers.
4. Lack of regular monitoring and
evaluation.
5. Innovations result to teacher burn
out.
6. Innovations are not
communicated to all.
Responses to Issues and
Concerns
1. The BEC is an example of an
innovation that tries to address the
continuous decline in learners’
performance in basic education.
2. In the installation of a new
curriculum or innovation, all
stakeholders should be involved.
3. There is a need to respond to the
fast changing times in terms of
school curriculum innovations.
Committees should be formed to
address each phase or curriculum
installation, implementation and
evaluation.
4. General practice seems to show
that when a new curriculum is
introduced or implemented, it ends
without a report or result. New
curricular programs have now
embedded monitoring and
evaluation in its plan.
5. Collaboration in the
implementation of a new curriculum
is very necessary so that a sense of
ownership is achieved and success
is assured.
