Is Knowledge Enough?
This session examines whether a ‘knowledge rich curriculum’ is a meaningful idea and addressing questions such as whose knowledge, what knowledge, and why? The session will explore whether schools have the confidence and ability to justify the curriculum choices they have made, with the backdrop of high stakes accountability, identity politics entering the realm of curriculum choices, and an input/output model of learning gaining ground in many classrooms
