Season 2, Episode 36: Implementing a knowledge-rich curriculum: Part 1

Implementing a knowledge-rich curriculum: Part 1

In this episode, we explore what a knowledge-rich curriculum means in practice for New Zealand schools, and how principals are leading that shift from both primary and secondary perspectives. We discuss the difference between knowledge-rich and competency-based approaches, the misconceptions that come up in staff and whānau conversations, and the leadership practices that can't be left to chance.

Hosted by Eleisha McNeill.

Our guests are:

• Stephen Grady, principal at Matuangaru School in Auckland
• Catherine Law, principal at Avonside Girls' High School in Ōtautahi Christchurch, and seconded to the Ministry of Education to lead knowledge-rich curriculum development
