Recommended Curriculum, Written Curriculum, and Supported Curriculum determines my vision as a principal. Those three components draws the framework for all stakeholders to operate in a school place.

 

 

1. Recommended curriculum: It identifies the skills, concepts and content that will be emphasized throughout the learning process. A recommended curriculum is often presented by the authority to schools as a policy recommendation with a list of goals and a sequence content that suggest the graduation requirements.

 

 

2. Written curriculum: It is a specific and comprehensive plan which intends to ensure that the educational goals of the system are being accomplished at a school. The written curriculum has mediating, standardizing and controlling functions. First, it represents a useful compromise between what that educators think should be taught and what teachers believe can be taught. It minimizes the gap between the expectations of administrators and the preferences of teachers. Written curriculum standardizes “what is taught” at different schools who follows the same recommended curriculum.

 

 

3. Supported curriculum: It is the curriculum as reflected in the shaped by the resources allocated to support and deliver the written curriculum. There are 4 kinds of resources:

• The time allocated to a given subject at a particular level of schooling
• The time allocated by the classroom teacher within that overall subject allocation to particular aspects of the curriculum
• Personnel allocations as reflected in a resulting class – size decisions
• The textbooks and other learning materials provided for use in the classroom.
