Description
The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced a new paradigm in education that has forced school management teams to re-imagine their curricula delivery functions and obligations during and post COVID-19. Now there are concerns about the state to which curriculum delivery in schools is likely to become planned, implemented, and managed.
Investigating the Roles of School Management Teams in Curriculum Delivery improves the quality of planning, implementation, and management of curriculum delivery to advance the quality of teaching and learning in schools. Particularly, it envisages innovative strategies, best practices, and addresses problems in the planning, implementation, and delivery of curricula by school management teams. Covering topics such as curriculum delivery theory, curriculum delivery in planning, implementation, and management during and post COVID-19; curriculum delivery in assessment and alternative assessment; and reimagining inclusivity in curriculum delivery, this edited book is essential for departmental heads, deputy principals, education district officials, department of basic education curriculum designers, instructional designers, administrators, academicians, university teachers, researchers, and post-graduate students.
