Power Up Your Curriculum. A practical guide for teachers, teams, schools and parents

Great teaching starts with a great curriculum. But how good is the curriculum in your team or school, and how can you make this even better than it is already? In this book, through a focus on pitfalls, principles and practical approaches, we will unpack both these questions.

We will start by exploring the relationship between knowledge and skills, debunking myths that the curriculum should be focusing on one or the other: skills are knowledge in action, so we need to focus on both.

Next, we will discuss why a 'knowledge-based, skills-oriented' curriculum is the best shot schools have at raising attainment for all students and closing background-related attainment gaps.
