Evaluation and periodic revision are critical to curriculum development if the process is to reflect psychological, social and educational changes as well as new methodologies. The revised curriculum takes a student centred approach to learning which gives focus to the competency of the students in applying knowledge. In addition, the curriculum uses an integrated approach to learning, which enables our students to understand the relevance of what they learn and the relationship between different subject matter. The ability to make connections is important to the achievement of meaningful learning outcomes. ‘Our teachers are therefore encouraged to use this curriculum creatively, to generate excitement in the leaning process, whilst the Ministry continues to monitor and evaluate — always in the quest for quality. KsGit.2., Burchell Whiteman (Hon.) Message from ‘The creation of an education system that can adjust and adapt new methodologies in the learning experiences of our children, isan important challenge towards developing the whole child to mectthe changing needs of society In view of this, there was an urgent need for a revision of the Primary Curriculum, and this was achieved through the IDB funded Primary Education Improvement Project (GOJ/IDB II). The project was executed through six Components focusing on improvement inthe acess to and the quality of primary education, through qualitative and infrastructural development. ‘The curriculum guides were developed through a process involving relevant bodies and agencies regionally, nationally and internationally, and the piloting of a draft of the revised curriculum in thirty schools from September, 1997, to June, 1999. ‘A major aspect ofthe revised curriculum is an integrated approach at grades 1-3, which establishes links between subject areas so that Jeaming will be more meaningful forthe child. At grades 4-6, there is greater emphasis on discrete subjects. A major highlight also, is the special focus on literacy (reading skills in particular) and numeracy. ‘The revision included curriculum officers, eachers and teacher educators, and I wish to express the Ministry's appreciation for their ‘commitment and service to education. tis commendable that continuous assessinent is built into the revised curriculum, so that teachers can better monitor and report on students’ progress, and use the data to inform their teaching strategies. We believe that this revised curriculum should enable all students to acquire a wide range of skills and a responsible attitude to learning. bt Phyllis Mitchell Message from Marguerite Bowie Permanent Secretary By the end of the 1970"s Jamaica had achieved the provision of universal primary education for children ages 6-11. This outstanding, achievement was followed in 1980 by the completion of a new progressive primary curriculum that was designed with an integrated approach to the education of children in all the primary grades. Te-was expected that, in the normal course of events, the new curriculum would undergo review and change as new educational practices evolved and new societal needs emerged. And indeed, over the last decade several societal issues have arisen that have ‘demanded an urgent curricular response. To this end, several interest groups have made strong representation to the Ministry for the inclusion of important messages in the primary school curriculum. Included among the most prominent issues that have arisen are tourism, Garveyism, healthy lifestyles environmental awareness, the role of the aesthetics in personal development, and the need to ‘ensure thatthe curriculum fosters the development of positive social values and attitudes in our children. Analysis of the revised ccurricilum will show that every effort has been made to respond to these issues. In adkition, in recent years there has been « refinement of the vision for children leaving the primary stage of education. The vision is ‘ofa child who is culturally awate, literate and numerate, with a well developed sense of self and community. This refined vision has allowed us to pursue the process of curicula review in a more strategic manner, and take advantage of important new developments in ‘education such as cooperative methods of learning, The revised primary curticulum has benefited from the collective wisdom of students, parents, teachers, a dedicated cadre of Core Curriculum Officers, as wel s the inputs of other specialists. I believe that it can satisfy the educational requirements of all our students a it offers exciting learning experiences relevant to their current and future needs. Ms Dow. Marguerite Bowie Message from Wesley E. Barrett Chief Education Officer ‘The pat ofthis revised and renewed primary schoo cariclum, wih atbutes of coherence, aapailiy, comprebensvents, relevance nd ‘rudct neds, as bee cicned by «dynam procs involving tl sakholdew, Av el th curl soul ly claim gully ‘and responsiveness in our schools. Apart from the teachers, it indeed constitutes perhaps the most critical input into the educational process. ‘Accordingly it should be effectively implemented. ‘A feature ofthe curiculum i the integrative ~ discrete model of content organization. The curricula for grades 1 t03 exemplify the integration of ‘content around major themes adding greater meaning to learning, and is supported by effective methodologies, learning experiences and ‘assessment. For grades 4 to 6, the conventional discrete subject organization approach is retained, bt here there is greater emphasis on the linking, ‘of content within and between topics to ensure coherence. The overall model is compatible with global tends towards integrating subject areas, particularly in the early primary grades. At the same time, provision is made for students to pursue discrete subject areas as they advance in school. “The curriculum model with its greater emphasis on problem-solving and creativity skill, as well a its recognition of accepted learning theories, ‘comes at time when there isa call for higher levels of student achievement and attainment. This cal s forcing upoa schools the need to implement a stong curriculum which contributes to high levels of attainment and achievement. Such levels must be bench-marked against the existing educational standards that are well defined and perceptively consistent with the demands ofa knowledge based leaming environment. ‘As Chief Education Officer [urge all schools to implement the proposals contained in the guides, bearing in mind that they should be adapted to suit particular levels, interests and school environments. All levels of professionals and workers within the formal school system have a partto play in seeing o a planned implementation and monitoring ofthe primary curriculum. The issues of inputs, process and product immediately come to the fore, and shouldbe recognized and focused on in the implementation plan. ‘The primary curriculum promises much. [hope the main beneficiaries, primary schoolchildren, will receive much from it. 2 Ex WeseyF Bast MESSAGE FROM THE ACEO - CORE CURRICULUM UNIT ‘This curriculum is designed on the premise that every child ean lear, and as such provides opportunites forthe identification and development ofall their intlligenci Its based on the philosophy that pupils, empowered by increased achievement in numeracy and literacy, who are aesthetically and spiritually aware and who are guided by a commitment to moral and social principles, will be well prepared to face the challenges of the twenty-first century. Primary Education must lay the foundation for life-long leaming, as well as help pupils develop positive altitudes and values and the ‘coping skills necessary for survival in an increasingly complex world. This curriculum provides opportunities for their development through strategies such as co-operative leaming, group and project work, which encourage pupils to explore and share ideas as they ‘identify and solve problems, In addition it teaches pupils how to learn, a skill which will not only allow them to have a greater sense ‘of responsibility for their own progress, but will also allow for the adaptability required in a world where learning will be continuous. ‘The curriculum is fully integrated at Grades 1-3, with discrete subject areas at Grades 4-6. Opportunities for integration at the Grades 4-6 level are provided through research and project work based on interdisciplinary themes. ‘The curriculum is child centered and child focused and is designed to help children establish their own identity as citizens of the World, Its also flexible enough to allow teachers to adapt it to satisfy the varying abilities and learning styles oftheir pupils as well as the demands of their local environment. ‘This curriculum was developed by a group of dedicated edueators — teachers ofall grades, principals, lecturers at tertiary institutions, Core Curriculum officers - assisted by the co-ordinators ofthe Evaluation Component of the Primary Education Project (PEIP ID). It includes inputs from children and their parents, education officers who supervise curriculum implementation, evaluators, local and international, as well as other persons from a wide cross section of the Jamaican Society. Credit must also be given to my predecessors, Janet Johnson and Isoline Reid, who during their time as Assistant Chief Education Officers, made invaluable ‘contribution to the process even as they provided guidance and leadership for officers and other educators. ‘This curriculum is ours. IF iti implemented with creativity and commitment it will form the base for further learning atthe Secondary and Tertiary stages of the system and for continuing education outside of school. Lis with pleasure that we present this curriculum to the children of Jamaica, with the knowledge that it will make a significant difference to their lives. A welds Reynolds (Mrs. ‘Acig. ACEO Core Curriculum Unit “ The child completing primary school should be functionally literate and numerate, demonstrating a Positive self-concept and a willingness to take tesponsibility for his/her own learning. Hershe should be culturally, aesthetically and spiritually aware, and be guided by a commitment to social and moral principles.” Vision statement formulated in the PEIP HI Project Workshop, Jamaica Conference Centre, September 12 & 13, 1996 Final amendment July 3, 1998 INTRODUCTION TO THE CURRICULUM GUIDES “The Revised Primary Curriculum was developed in consultation with the various stakeholders, including parents and children, and has hhad the benefit of piloting over a three-year period. It succeeds the previous curriculum which has been in the system since 1978 and the areas of significant change reflect the feeling thatthe revision was long overdue. This curriculum is different in format and design from its predecessor. Grades 1-3 are fully integrated using the overarching ‘Me and My Environment” theme o ‘and this represents the emphasis being placed on these in the curriculum. "At Grades 4-6, the format changes to diserete disciplines - Drama, Language Arts, Mathematics, Music, Physical Education, Religious Education, Science, Social Studies, Visual Art, with thematic integration across subject areas being encouraged in the pupils’ project and research work ‘The Grades 1-3 units are preceded by an overview of the themes, sub-themes and topics for the lower primary programme. At Grades 4-6, subject units are preceded by introductory pages which give the philosophy, as well as an overview of the upper primary programme for each. Technology is infused into all the units and special guidelines for its use are detailed in the pages entitled “The ‘Need for Technology in Education” “Teaching Units All the curriculum units follow a basic pattern, and in addition to providing numerous activities to give “hands on” ‘experience, they are carefully constructed according to the attainment targets, objectives and skills the pupils need to acquire. (Refer to “Terms Used in the Curriculum Guides”). Teachers, in turn, may use these same criteria to design or modify the units to suit ther particutar pupils’ needs/learning styles or local environment, ‘Assessment Alternative modes of assessment, including the use of portfolios and the keeping of journals, are encouraged, Assessment Sirategies are intimately linked to the focus questions, objectives and activities as produet or performance, that is, what pupils ean do to show that they have achieved the objectives. Suggestions for evaluation based on criteria will help teachers make better judgements about their pupils’ work. Further details are given on the pages entitled “Notes on Assessment” Literscy/Numeracy The specific inclusion of the Attainment Targets and Objectives for Language Arts and Mathematis in the ‘Guide, isto help the teachers ensure thatthe skills in literacy and numeracy are developed. Teachers should use these to ensure the skills are addressed through the integrated units, as well asin the special ‘window" time at Grades 1-3. Materials/Resources The curriculum allows for the use of a wide range of materials and resources - from materials made by pupils ‘and teachers to computer software and the Internet, as well as resource persons. These may come from the national or local communities but may also include all categories of staff and the pupils themselves. ‘TERMS USED IN THE CURRICULUM GUIDES ‘THE ATTAINMENT TARGET ‘THE ORJECTIVE, ‘THE, FOCUS QUESTION KBY VOCABULARY OR CONCEPTS ‘THE PROCEDURES/ACTIVITIES ‘THE SKILLS "THE ASSESSMENT ‘THE EVALUATION Reading te calendar Toterretation ofthe i. practise reading and copyingwriting ames of numbers, days and months. | » Writing nmeralhwords calendar il dseuss how birthdays are celebrated.
