During the unit you will:

  • Attend a series of workshops
  • Develop your capacity to critically appraise a curriculum as well as design and lead the implementation of curriculum innovation in practice
  • Work alongside peers to support curriculum development planning or practice
  • Produce an annotated curriculum specification for a proposed whole curriculum or part-curriculum modification (2,000 words)
