CURRICULUM MANAGEMENT PLAN

Curriculum Management Plan is a comprehensive

document that provides direction for the design, delivery,

evaluation, and management of the curriculum.

CURRICULUM. DATA. COLLABORATION.

Curriculum Management Plan

The curriculum management plan communicates intent and direction for the district in the area of curriculum and instruction. It also connects the written, taught, and tested curriculum in a manner that unifies the district around a common vision and mission. It becomes a catalyst for starting a transformational process for changing the culture of a district, the core work, and the relationships of the people within the organization who do the work.

To develop a curriculum management plan, curriculum philosophy, vision, beliefs, and a Graduate Portrait are developed as a basis or foundation for all other components of the plan.

PURPOSE: CURRICULUM MANAGEMENT PLAN

• Establishes guidelines and procedures for the development, revision, deletion, enrichment, and evaluation of the written curriculum in all subject areas.

• Provides for an ongoing cycle of curriculum examination

• Serves as an interface with other major district plans and processes so that the work of the district is collaborative, coordinated, coherent, and consistent with the vision, mission, and goals of the district.

• Becomes the work plan for the central office

OBJECTIVE 2

Discuss the requirements for curriculum delivery and professional learning.

CURRICULUM. DATA. COLLABORATION.

OBJECTIVE 2

Teachers are required to use the district curriculum as their primary source of instructional direction.

Teachers will access the written curriculum and instructional components supporting it through the automated curriculum management system.

Teachers will plan lessons using the district approved template that offers flexibility for teachers to select the most appropriate model for them.

Professional learning needs to be designed to meet the needs of teachers based on where they are in their professional careers.

Professional learning is a means to an end and must be planned to enhance student learning of the curriculum.
