They are intended to assist you to prepare students to meet the rapidly changing demands of life in the 21st century, while ensuring that they acquire the core of general knowledge and experience essential for later education and employment. The new curriculum that they represent is designed to guide the adoption of a more student-centred approach to instruction and the provision of learning opportunities that are relevant to today s students and inclusive of varied learning needs and interests. Since the beginning of the curriculum development process, we have seen profound changes in the use of technology in education and there is no doubt that similar shifts will take place in the coming years. The challenge for us as educators is to find ways to make our approach to teaching flexible, progressive, and responsive, so that we embrace and motivate change where it benefits learners. This entails becoming lifelong learners ourselves and creating environments that provide necessary community support and foster professional development. The Guides embody the culmination of seven years of development and revision activity. The National Curriculum will, however, be regularly reviewed to ensure that it continues to meet the needs of all students and matches the goals of society. Your input in this process is vital and we welcome and encourage your ongoing feedback. Instructional decisions must be based on sound, contemporary educational theory, practice, and research. These documents will serve as important guides for the development of instructional programmes to be implemented at the school and classroom levels. They are organized in several parts. Part 1 is common to all and provides the general philosophy and aims in which every subject is anchored. Part 2 is specific to each subject and includes specific outcomes and sample activities and strategies that may be used to achieve them. The rest of the document is designed to suit the particular needs of each subject area. All the Guides include suggested assessment strategies and recommended resources. We in the Curriculum Planning and Development Division are confident that the new National Curriculum Guides for Forms 4 and 5 will contribute significantly to enhanced teaching and learning experiences in our secondary schools and, consequently, the achievement of personal learning and national educational goals. Sharon Douglass-Mangroo Director of Curriculum Development August 2008 v8 vi9 Acknowledgements The Ministry of Education wishes to express its sincere appreciation to all those who contributed to the Curriculum development and revision processes from 2000 to the present. The staff of the Coordinating Unit of the Secondary Education Modernization Programme (SEMPCU), past and present, provided technical assistance and planned, organized, and conducted the various exercises over the years. They include Mr. Maurice Chin Aleong, Mr. Lloyd Pujadas, Ms. Patricia Sealey, Mr. Arnott West, Dr. Stephen Joseph, Ms. Renee Figuera, and Ms. Roslyn Elias. Mrs. Sharon Douglass-Mangroo, Director of Curriculum Development, led the curriculum development sub-component and coordinated the curriculum development and revision activities. Mrs. Dipwattie Maharaj, Director, Curriculum Planning and Development, who supervised the completion of the project. Dr. Robert Sargent guided the early curriculum development process. The Principals of the pilot schools generously contributed teachers and participated in regular meetings to provide valuable feedback on field tests. The Principals of non-pilot schools kindly released teachers to take part in writing activities. The staff of the School Libraries Division actively joined in workshops, facilitated research, and contributed to the infusion of information technology into the curriculum. Editors, past and present: Ms. Avril Ross, Ms. Lynda Quamina-Aiyejina, and Ms. Patricia Worrell devoted time, energy, and knowledge to editing the several versions of the documents. The Administrative staff of the Curriculum Development Division spent long hours typing and retyping the documents. Officers of the Divisions of Educational Services, Schools Supervision, Student Support Services, and Educational Research and Evaluation provided support as needed. Teachers throughout the secondary school system responded to requests for comments and other forms of feedback. The Curriculum Officers and members of the Curriculum Writing Teams brought their knowledge, skills and practical experiences of teaching and learning to the curriculum development workshops and skillfully synthesized all to produce these documents. vii10 viii11 Part 1 The National Curriculum for Forms 4 and 5 Part 1 The National Curriculum for Forms 4 and 512 13 Background From the Ministry of Education s Corporate Plan (p. 4) The Government of Trinidad and Tobago, in its Vision 2020 Draft National Strategic Plan, has articulated a vision of a united, resilient, productive, innovative, and prosperous nation with a disciplined, caring, fun-loving society comprising healthy, happy and well-educated people and built on the enduring attributes of self reliance, respect, tolerance, equity and integrity Towards the achievement of this Vision, the Government has articulated five developmental pillars: Developing Innovative People Nurturing a Caring Society Governing Effectively Enabling Competitive Business Investing in Sound Infrastructure and Environment The Ministry of Education has been identified as one of the champions for developing innovative people. Central to the realization of this pillar is A highly skilled, well-educated people aspiring to a local culture of excellence that is driven by equal access to learning opportunities. In conjunction with other key Ministries, the Ministry of Education has been charged with the realization of the following goals: The people of Trinidad and Tobago will be well known for excellence in innovation. Trinidad and Tobago will have a seamless, self-renewing, high-quality education system. A highly skilled, talented and knowledgeable workforce will stimulate innovation driven growth and development. The richness of our diverse culture will serve as a powerful engine to inspire innovation and creativity. 114 Nationally, the reform of the education system is driven by several local, regional and international perspectives. We are committed to a seamless, self-renewing, high-quality education system underpinned by a National Model for Education. This National Model has three (3) foci as follows: I. To ensure an alignment of the Education System to Government s Strategic Plan Vision 2020 which mandates that the education system produces caring and innovative citizens II. To ensure that the Education System produces citizens with a sense of democracy, respect for the rights of others and elders and with the ability to contribute meaningfully to the social and economic development of the country III. To build a strong sense of nationalism and patriotism in our citizens. (p. 7) The Secondary Curriculum In its commitment to comprehensive reform and expansion of the secondary school system, the Government of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, in 1996, adopted the report of the National Task Force on Education as educational policy. The specific recommendations for the improvement of secondary education led to discussions with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) for loan funding arrangements for a programme, the Secondary Education Modernization Programme (SEMP), to modernize secondary education in Trinidad and Tobago. One of the intended outcomes of this programme was improved educational equity and quality. The Curriculum Guides produced for Forms 4 and 5 in eight subject areas are among the products and contribute to this outcome. 215 The Curriculum Underpinnings The new Curriculum has been informed by a wealth of available curriculum theories and processes. The major forces that influence and shape the organization and content of the Curriculum originate from: 1. Educational philosophy and the nature of knowledge 2. Society and culture 3. The learner and learning process 4. The nature and structure of subject matter to be learned 5. Learning theories Considerations of these areas represent the foundation on which the National Curriculum is built. The philosophical concerns and educational goals that shaped the Curriculum also formed the basis for the dialogue with stakeholders in which the Curriculum Development Division engaged, with the aim of developing a coherent, culturally focused, and dynamically evolving Curriculum. An internal analysis of the Education System, together with the research conducted in international forums, has shown that the curriculum is core to the development of innovative people. This Curriculum is aimed at attaining six Essential Learning Outcomes. The six Outcomes identified help to define universally accepted goals that have been developed and underscored by other educational jurisdictions and that have been agreed to be essential. The Essential Learning Outcomes help to define standards of attainment for all secondary school students. 316 The Essential Learning Outcomes The learning outcomes deemed essential are in the areas of: Aesthetic Expression Citizenship Communication Personal Development Problem Solving Technological Competence The achievement of these Essential Learning Outcomes by all students is the goal that every core curriculum subject must facilitate. The core curriculum subjects; their content; and the teaching, learning, and assessment strategies are the means to fulfill this end. It is expected that by the end of the third year of secondary school, students achievement in all six areas will result in a solid foundation of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will constitute a platform for living in the Trinidad and Tobago society and making informed choices for further secondary education. The Essential Learning Outcomes are described more fully below. Aesthetic Expression Students recognize that the arts represent an important facet of their development, and they should respond positively to its various forms. They demonstrate visual acuity and aesthetic sensibilities and sensitivities in expressing themselves through the arts. 417 Students, for example: use various art forms as a means of formulating and expressing ideas, perceptions, and feelings; demonstrate understanding of the contribution of the arts to daily life, cultural identity, and diversity; demonstrate understanding of the economic role of the arts in the global village society; demonstrate understanding of the ideas, perceptions, and feelings of others as expressed in various art forms; demonstrate understanding of the significance of cultural resources, such as museums, theatres, galleries, and other expressions of the multicultural reality of society. Citizenship Students situate themselves in a multicultural, multi-ethnic environment, and understand clearly the contribution they must make to social, cultural, economic, and environmental development in the local and global context. Students, for example: demonstrate understanding of sustainable development and its implications for the environment locally and globally; demonstrate understanding of Trinidad and Tobago s political, social, and economic systems in the global context; demonstrate understanding of the social, political, and economic forces that have shaped the past and present, and apply those understandings to the process of planning for the future; 518 examine issues of human rights and recognize and react against forms of discrimination, violence and anti-social behaviours; determine the principles and actions that characterize a just, peaceful, pluralistic and democratic society, and act accordingly; demonstrate understanding of their own cultural heritage and cultural identity, and that of others, as well as the contribution of the many peoples and cultures to society. Communication Students use their bodies, the symbols of the culture, language, tools and various other media to demonstrate their deeper understandings of synergies inherent in the exchange of ideas and information, and thus to communicate more effectively. Students, for example: explore, reflect on, and express their own ideas, learning, perceptions, and feelings; demonstrate understanding of facts and relationships presented through words, numbers, symbols, graphs, and charts; demonstrate sensitivity and empathy where necessary in communicating various kinds of emotions and information; present information and instructions clearly, logically, concisely, and accurately for a variety of audiences; interpret and evaluate data, and express their conclusions in everyday language; critically reflect on and interpret ideas presented through a variety of media. 619 Personal Development Students grow from inside out, continually enlarging their knowledge base, expanding their horizons, and challenging themselves in the pursuit of a healthy and productive life. Students, for example: demonstrate preparedness for the transition to work and further learning; make appropriate decisions and take responsibility for those decisions; work and study purposefully, both independently and in cooperative groups; demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between health and lifestyle; discriminate among a wide variety of career opportunities; demonstrate coping, management, and interpersonal skills; display intellectual curiosity, an entrepreneurial spirit, and initiative; reflect critically on ethical and other issues; deal effectively with change and become agents for positive, effective change. 720 Problem Solving Students know problem solving strategies and apply them to situations they encounter. They demonstrate critical thinking and inquiry skills with which they process information to solve a wide variety of problems. Students, for example: acquire, process, and interpret information critically to make informed decisions; use a variety of strategies and perspectives flexibly and creatively to solve problems; formulate tentative ideas, and question their own assumptions and those of others; solve problems individually and collaboratively; identify, describe, formulate, and reformulate problems; frame and test hypotheses; ask questions, observe relationships, make inferences, and draw conclusions; identify, describe, and interpret different points of view; distinguish facts from opinions. 821 Technological Competence Students are technologically literate, understand and use various technologies, and demonstrate an understanding of the role of technology in their lives, in society, and in the world at large. Students, for example: locate, evaluate, adapt, create, and share information using a variety of sources and technologies; demonstrate understanding of and use existing and developing technologies appropriately; demonstrate understanding of the impact of technology on society; demonstrate understanding of ethical issues related to the use of technology in local and global contexts. 922 The Curriculum Design and Development Process In order to achieve the outcomes defined by the underpinning philosophy and goals, the Curriculum Development Division of the Ministry of Education embarked on a design and development programme consonant with accepted approaches to curriculum change and innovation. Curriculum Design This Curriculum displays a learner-centered design. Its philosophical assumptions are mainly constructivist. Its major orientation is to curriculum as self-actualization. The Curriculum is student-centred and growth oriented. It seeks to provide personally satisfying experiences for each student. As the student moves from one level to another, activities also expand to allow him/her new insights and approaches to dealing with and integrating new knowledge. Curriculum Development The first stage of the curriculum development process consisted of consultations with stakeholders from a cross-section of the national community. Consultations were held with primary and secondary school teachers; principals; members of denominational school boards; members of the business community; the executive of the Trinidad and Tobago Unified Teachers Association (TTUTA); representatives from The University of the West Indies (UWI), John S. Donaldson Technical Institute, San Fernando Technical Institute, Valsayn Teachers College and Caribbean Union College; parents; librarians; guidance counsellors; students; curriculum officers; and school supervisors. They were focused on the philosophy, goals, and learning outcomes of education. 1023 The result of these consultations was agreement on: the concept of a core, that is, Essential Learning Outcomes consisting of skills, knowledge, attitudes, and values that students must acquire at the end of five years of secondary schooling; the eight subjects to form the core; the desirable outcomes of Secondary School Education in Trinidad and Tobago. In Stage 2 of the process, the officers of the Curriculum Development Division studied the reports of the consultations, the Education Policy Paper, the reports of the Curriculum Task Force and the Task Force for Removal of Common Entrance, as well as newspaper articles and letters to the editor on education during the preceding five years. The School Libraries Division and the Division of School Supervision assisted the Curriculum Development Division in this task. The result of the study was the identification and articulation of a set of desirable outcomes and essential exit competencies to be possessed by all students on leaving school. All learning opportunities, all teaching and learning strategies, and all instructional plans are to contribute to the realization of these outcomes and competencies. At Stage 3, 10 existing schools were identified to pilot the new Curriculum. Teachers from eight subject areas were drawn from these schools to form Curriculum Writing Teams for each subject. Teachers with specific subject or curriculum development skills from other schools were also included in the teams. The outputs of this phase included learning outcomes specific to each subject that contribute to the fulfillment of the national outcomes; subject content; and teaching, learning, and assessment strategies to support the outcomes. The draft Curriculum Guides for Forms 1 and 2 were approved by Cabinet for introduction into schools on a phased basis in September The draft guides for Form 3 were completed and introduced in the following year. Introduction of the new guides was accompanied by professional development and training for principals and teachers. The Ministry also began to supply new and/or upgraded facilities for teaching and learning, and educational technology. At the same time, work began on a new assessment and certification system. 1124 Curriculum Revision As implementation proceeded, feedback was received in the Curriculum Development Division through school visits, workshops, and reviews by UWI lecturers and other stakeholders. In 2007, a survey was conducted among teachers, followed by focus group meetings, in order to concretize feedback before embarking on the revision process. As in the original curriculum development exercise, revision the final stage was carried out by teams of practising teachers led by officers of the Curriculum Development Division. 1225 Teaching of English Language across the Curriculum Language is a uniquely human capacity. The development of language skills and the ability to understand and use language correctly, competently, and effectively is fundamental to the learning outcomes expressed in the national curriculum. Three simultaneous kinds of learning are envisaged: students learn language, they learn through language, and they learn about language. The National Curriculum envisages that language development of students takes place across the curriculum and is therefore to be addressed in all subject areas. Students will develop and use patterns of language vital to understanding and expression in the different subjects that make up the Curriculum. Language plays a major role in learning and occurs when students use the major modes of language listening, speaking, reading, and writing to achieve various purposes, among them: to communicate with others; to express personal beliefs, feelings, ideas, and so on; for cognitive development in various subjects of the curriculum; and to explore and gain insight into and understanding of literature. Language is linked to the thinking process, and its use allows students to reflect on and clarify their own thought processes and, thus, their own learning. The student of Trinidad and Tobago functions in a bidialectal context, that is, the natural language of the student, the Creole, differs from the target language and the language of instruction, Internationally Acceptable English. Both languages are of equal value and worth and are to be respected. Students use their own language as a tool for interpreting the content of the curriculum and for mastering it, and are to be taught to use the target language as effectively and effortlessly as they would their natural language. The exponential growth in information and the use of information and communication technologies provide the opportunity for students to be critical users of information. Language development and use in this context is also addressed in all subject areas. 1326 Education Policies that Impact on the Curriculum There are several Ministry of Education policies that impact on the National Secondary Curriculum, though some are still in the process of formalization. These include the National Model for Primary and Secondary Education in Trinidad and Tobago, the ICT policy, Standards for the Operation of Schools, and Quality Standards. Copies of these documents may be obtained from the Ministry offices or the website at Three policies that have direct impact on the development and implementation of the Curriculum are discussed below. National Curriculum Policy A Draft National Curriculum Policy has been approved by Cabinet for consultation with stakeholders. The Policy statements are summarized as follows: 1. The Curriculum must articulate with the goals of national development and be supportive of the aspirations of individuals and their personal development. It must provide opportunities for every student to be equipped with the knowledge, skills, attitudes, values, and dispositions necessary for functioning in an interactive, interdependent society. 2. The Curriculum must be so managed as to ensure the provision of a quality curriculum experience for all students at all levels of the system. 3. At every level of the system, there must be equitable provision of requisite facilities, resources, services, and organizational structures that are conducive to and supportive of effective learning and teaching and healthy development. 4. Continuous quality management must support all curriculum and related activities at every level of the system. 5. Ongoing research and professional development activities must equip education practitioners for continued effective practice. Though not yet formally accepted, these statements are worthy of consideration at all stages of the curriculum cycle. 1427 Inclusive Education Policy The Ministry of Education is committed to support the delivery of inclusive education in all schools by providing support and services to all learners, and by taking appropriate steps to make education available, accessible, acceptable and adaptable to all learners. An inclusive curriculum is acknowledged to be the most important factor in achieving inclusive education. In planning and teaching the school curriculum, teachers are therefore required to give due regard to the following principles: The National Curriculum Guides set out what most students should be taught at lower secondary school but teachers should teach the required knowledge and skills in ways that suit students interests and abilities. This means exercising flexibility and drawing from curricula for earlier or later class levels to provide learning opportunities that allow students to make progress and experience success. The degrees of differentiation exercised will depend on the levels of student attainment. Varied approaches to teaching, learning, and assessment should be planned to allow all students to participate fully and effectively. Account should be taken of diverse cultures, beliefs, strengths, and interests that exist in any classroom and that influence the way students learn. Students with special needs shall receive additional instructional support in the context of the regular curriculum, not a different one. The guiding principle of equity is to supply students who need it with additional help to achieve set standards rather than to lower the standards. Continuous formative evaluation must be used to identify learning needs and to shape instruction, thus maximizing students opportunities for achieving success. Assessment strategies must be appropriate to the way the curriculum is designed and delivered, as well as to each student s individual learning profile and stage of development. Suitable technology shall be used in instruction to facilitate learning and enhance success. ICT in the Curriculum The following statements are taken from the Ministry of Education s ICT in Education Policy (pp ). 1528 Curriculum Content and Learning Resources Curriculum and content must increasingly maximize the use of ICT. ICT must be integrated into the development and delivery of the curriculum. ICT integration and ICT competency measures across the curriculum shall be driven through the development and delivery of an ICT-infused curriculum. The Core Curriculum Subjects These are subjects for which every student is required to demonstrate achievement of the stated outcomes in Forms 4 and 5. Additional subjects that contribute to students holistic development and further their interests and aspirations may also be offered thereafter. A minimum time allocation is recommended for each core subject. The Principal, as instructional leader of the school, will make the final decision according to the needs of the students and the resources available at any given time. The subjects and the time allocations are as follows: Subject No. of Periods Subject No. of Periods English/Language Arts 6 Mathematics 5 Science 4 Health and Physical Education 2 Spanish 4 Visual and Performing Arts 4 Social Studies 4 At the end of Form 5, students will be assessed for the National Certificate of Secondary Education (NCSE), Level 2. 1629 Curriculum Implementation Implementation of the Curriculum is a dynamic process, requiring collaboration of the developers (curriculum teams) and users (teachers). In implementation, teachers are expected to use the formal curriculum, as described in the Curriculum Guides, to plan work and teach in a manner that accomplishes the objectives described. Teachers translate those objectives into units of study, determining the appropriate sequence and time allocation according to the learning needs of their students. The new Curriculum Guides provide sample teaching and assessment strategies but it is the role of the professional teacher to select and use sound teaching practices, continually assessing student learning, and systematically providing feedback to the curriculum team for use in revising and improving the guides. The Curriculum Development System advocated by the Ministry of Education involves stakeholders, specialist Curriculum officers, Principals, Heads of Departments, and Teachers, each with specific roles and responsibilities. Some of these are outlined in the table below.
