Curriculum Revolutions is a tool to assist schools in creating, building and maintaining a joined-up curriculum that is cohesive and coherent. Martin Robinson' s unique curriculum wheel leads you through a continuous cycle of planning, designing, delivering, reflecting upon and reviewing your curriculum. The process will involve your managers, teachers and pupils, ensuring all understand the importance of a well-functioning curriculum as the cornerstone of the school and the quality of education it delivers. Good curriculum design is a collaborative affair, so each revolution of the wheel focuses on how to get staff working together productively. Most importantly, from a design point of view, Curriculum Revolutions explores the potential pitfalls in the curriculum shape that a school adopts, either consciously or unconsciously. Robinson argues that a sophisticated understanding of the underlying structure, or ' thought architecture' , can make all the difference to the quality of the continuing, unfolding project of good curriculum design.
If, from the title alone, you are expecting some kind of revolutionary anarchy . . . well, you won' t find it here. That would be misplaced for the serious business at hand - our Trivium-inspired Philosopher Kids won' t emerge from chaos. Instead, you' ll find a powerful conceptual framework - designed with the artful craftsmanship of a beautiful clock and with the insightful understanding of how teachers thrive; neither always alone or always in collaboration but forever part of a continuous bold and ambitious process than we can best achieve together. -- Tom Sherrington, author of The Learning Rainforest and Teaching WalkThrus
