Curriculum or Syllabus? (1)
There have been no changes to this discussion for at least 14 days. If it is concluded, you may want to write a summary.
Could we change away from the use of the word curriculum?
I have always understood curriculum to be quite a fine level of detail that a teacher or group of students set for themselves, including break times, sequencing, lesson plans, etc.
What we are talking about (I think) is syllabus, competency units, assessment standards

Curriculum stages (1)
There have been no changes to this discussion for at least 14 days. If it is concluded, you may want to write a summary.
In India at the National level (NCERT) we refer to grades 1-5 as primary, 6-8 as middle, 9-10 as senior secondary, and 11-12 as secondary.
Yours thoughts on this. Savithri
Dear Savithri ji,
It is a fine categorization of curriculum stages, but with respect to the stage names, I think the ‘middle’ seems to be not a perfect name for a curriculum stage. Similarly if the name Senior Secondary had come after Secondary it would have been more self-explanatory than the existing pattern. If it makes some sense please trigger a discussion at NCERT.
Regards
Anil
