1. INTRODUCTION Welcome to this programme for Primary School Curriculum Leaders! It is one of the two programmes being conducted by the Department of Curriculum and Instruction at the Hong Kong Institute of Education as part of the Primary School Curriculum Leaders training programme for 2013/14. It is an important time for you and for Hong Kong curriculum development. As the curriculum reforms progress, the success will very much depend on leadership at the school level. This involves principals, the school community, your colleagues and you. This programme will help you in a number of different ways. It will: give you access to new knowledge and skills that can help you to be an effective curriculum leader in primary schools; encourage you to explore and put into practice new and innovative ideas on teaching, learning and assessment to enhance the curriculum of your school based on current trends and development; provide you with opportunities to exchange ideas and information with colleagues doing similar work in other schools; provide you with feedback throughout the programme as you reflect on your learning. This programme handbook will provide information to guide your study. You will find that the programme has been constructed to take into consideration your needs as a fulltime worker and a part-time student. Its focus will be on assisting you to undertake your role as a Primary School Curriculum Leader and deal with the challenges and issues that you face on a daily basis. In this sense, it is not an overly theoretical programme except where an understanding of theory may assist you to be a better curriculum leader. The programme also recognizes that as an experienced teacher and newly appointed curriculum leader, you will have much to offer in the way of background experience and knowledge. You will be able to make use of your existing knowledge and understanding in the programme while at the same time benefiting from new ideas from tutors and other programme participants. I hope that as the programme progresses true learning communities will be created valuing what each member has to contribute. I wish you well in the programme. Its outcomes are important for Hong Kong s future and the well-being of young people in our schools. Dr. Tsui Kwok Tung Programme Leader December 2013 2
