Education Ministry holds training for the rollout of the renewed curriculum

On Monday a three-day programme was rolled out for preparing for the rollout of the renewed curriculum by the Education Ministry.

It was revealed that the programme is being held in the National Center of Educational Resources Development’s (NCERD) auditorium. It is being facilitated by NCERD, Mindbloom Consulting and St. Francis Xavier University.

The ministry noted that over the next three days, educators from all eleven education districts will be provided with an introduction to the renewed curriculum and the curriculum framework on which it is built. Further, they will also explore instructional strategies to support the Principles of Learning, Assessment and Inclusivity that support the renewed curriculum.

The ministry said that the purpose of the programme is also to develop a repository of resources for Master Trainers to use during sessions with principals and teachers to prepare them for the implementation of the renewed curriculum.

The ministry added that among those present included senior teachers, lecturers from the Cyril Potter College of Education, retired teachers, and education specialists.
