Bases of transaction of
curriculum
 Social philosophy of the society
 National needs
 Nature of course of study
 Type of examination system
 Form of government
 Theory of human organisation
 growth and development of students
 recommendation of commissions and
committees
In contrast, we feel that curricular transactions
are a series of micro-operations which will
have to involve the active and motivated
contributions of several participants such as
 pupils,
 teachers,
 parents,
 school administrators,
 textbook writers etc.
 In the process, the intended (official or
mandated) curriculum gets transformed in
various ways owing to these mediations.
From this it follows that what finally reaches
or is realized in classrooms in particular
schools is quite different from what is
idealized at the design and formulation stage.
