A New Curriculum has been rolled out in the Maldives in 2015. The NCF promotes holistic approach to education, placing equal emphasis on the
development of knowledge, understanding, skills, values and attitudes. The emphasis is
laid on building solid foundations of knowledge and skills in the early years of
schooling, introducing to students a fundamental understanding of key concepts and
processes across a breadth of key learning areas. As a student progresses through the
various stages of schooling, the breadth of the curriculum would narrow to some extent,
in order to provide adequate time and effort to making rigorous and in-depth study
possible. Alongside the development of knowledge, understanding and skills, students
would also be exposed to shared values and attitudes that they would be encouraged to
adopt, uphold and practise.
To achieve the NCF target, it is important to reach all the stakeholders and hear their voice.Therefore this blog will provide a platform for the stakeholders to share their view on different aspects of the curriculum, discuss success and challenges they face in the process of implementing the curriculum.
