School & College Curriculum Design 3: Impact

By Matt Bromley

This is the third book in a 3-volume series on School & College Curriculum Design from the best-selling author of The Working Classroom and The Stories We Tell.

Book One was about 'curriculum intent', all the planning that happens before teaching happens. As such, it explored the 'why?' and the 'what?' of education.

Book Two was about 'curriculum implementation', all the teaching that happens next. As such, it explored the 'how?' of education - the way in which teachers translate curriculum plans into classroom practice.

This book is about 'curriculum impact' - the 'how successfully?' of education. This book argues that, if the purpose of education is to prepare pupils for the next stage of their education, employment and lives, then the ways in which we measure 'impact' must go beyond test and qualification outcomes. Indeed, if we are to focus on the real substance of education, provide a broad and balanced curriculum that's ambitious for all and tackles social justice issues, then we should measure the impact of all this.

As such, this book posits that 'impact' is at least threefold - it is to:

1.Evaluate the effectiveness of the way in which the curriculum is designed
2.Evaluate the effectiveness of the way in which the curriculum is taught
3.Evaluate the pace of learner progress, learner outcomes, and learners' preparedness for their next steps.
