The Wicked Problem of curriculum #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Depth and Decadence • The depth that doesn't do a disservice to the knowledge • The decadence to ensure students recognise this knowledge as gold standard of the subject, not the exam. #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Also. . Culture is not capital. Culture is a way of being-in-the-world, ways ofbeing-in-the-world, culture includes collections of ideas, artefacts, objects, pieces, ways of making a mark in the world, which reflect values, narratives and ways of communicating about what it is to be human in this world.

Decluttering your Curriculum • What are your capsule pieces? • What makes the least sense? • What is the least connected? • What is the least useful? • What is the heritage and ancestry of your curriculum? #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Monumental to Miniscule A curriculum outline should indicate to you the type of school that you are stood within: its priorities, its strengths, and as a community, what it now sets out to achieve. It means that a silver bullet simply won’t do here. The narrative needs to be for your children, not just to be done to children. The priority of the curriculum is a vast one, and we have been tasked to unpack that. #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

The Monumental • What does the ‘whole picture’ view look like? • Does it feel like a healthy diet? Why/why not? • Where would you be improving what already exists? • Are we adding when modification is better, but messier? #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Curriculum Planning: beginning Collapsed structure At the beginning, planning will feel unproductive, and won’t move forward in a linear way. This is because a key component of the planning process is gathering knowledge at the startwithout this, the sequencing and choice of what to include later on will be unsuccessful.

The Monumental #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

• Conceptual connections? • Invitation to the big ideas? • A reflection of themselves? #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Miniscule • What do the ‘nuts and bolts’ look like once you look beneath the surface? • Where do the threads connect, and how often? • What do we intend to do with what we have included? #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

A progression model: knowledge x 1000 • How are students changed on a minute, yet progressive nature as they study? How do we create a line of continuum with knowledge and practice? • How do you know? • Where have we been measured and thoughtful of each hour of time? • PS ‘for the exams’ is not progression #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Enquiry • Select the Big Questions to be asked of the text • Big Questions should be vast, limitless and unbiased • The peril of the Big Question/Learning Objective hybrid #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Enquiry To what extent is Lady Macbeth a manipulator? Becomes Who is Lady Macbeth? #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Enquiry To what extent is Macbeth a literary victim? Becomes Is Macbeth a tragic hero? #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Enquiry How do I analyse a text? Becomes What are a woman’s hopes and fears? #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

#Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Enactment • Where are we supporting new connections? • Are we being consistent in all regards? • Are we following the 80/20 split to ensure thought and care? • Return, return- explicitly #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Enactment #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Enactment #Litdrive. CPD: Designing an English Curriculum Kat Howard @saysmiss

Progression through Assessment • ‘memory is the residue of thought’: knowledge is accumulative – where do we consider that in our curriculum? • Building resilience through opportunities • Avoiding GCSE dilution • Water stops, not finish lines #Litdrive.
