Whatever your role – whether you are a newly qualified primary teacher keen to build an inspiring curriculum for your class, or a senior curriculum leader in a secondary school – you will probably find it helpful to spend time considering the three key questions as the starting point for your curriculum journey:

• What are we trying to achieve for our young people through the curriculum?
• How can we best put together a curriculum experience that will enable us to achieve our aims for young people?
• How will we evaluate whether our curriculum is working?

Schools already involved in curriculum co-development have found it helpful to tackle these questions in order. Take time to build a picture of what you want the young people in your school to achieve, then think about the implications of this for your curriculum, and finally plan the measures you need to put in place to keep your curriculum development under review.

You can access all of the curriculum development activities on this site in one, downloadable document from 'A possible route'.

Alternatively, work your way through this section of the website to find the guidance and activities that help you to tackle each of these questions in turn.
