Draft Curriculum

During the professiona development sessions on Thursday morning, different topics come up. Todays was on Professional Reading where we look at the Key Competencies of the Draft Curriculum due to come out soon. The reason why we are looking at these to to debate how we can include them in our school, where they fit into our school and how they could be assessed.

having a look on the draft curriculum site I found a discussion paper by Rosemary Hipkins, Sally Boyd and Chris Joyce from the NZCER on "Assessment of key competencies".

The above link is the location of this discussion paper and I should go home and read it tonight for some light reading so when we go through this at school next time, and we will, I know what is going on.
