Introduction:
The Curriculum Project Online (CMP) and Te Kaupapa Marautanga o Aotearoa (MoA) are part of the New Zealand Curriculum Marautanga project. CORE manages the CMP and MoA websites (which use the Interact platform), and liaises with Ministry of Education facilitators to publish project material and organise related online discussions.
The Curriculum Marautanga project is about raising student achievement. It aims to:
- clarify and refine curriculum outcomes
- focus on quality teaching
- strengthen school ownership of curriculum
- support communication and strengthen partnerships between schools, parents and communities.
CMP and MoA give anyone with Internet access the chance to get involved.
Working documents, such as the essence statements and achievement objectives, are published online so that comments can be gathered as these materials are developed. The websites allow principals, teachers, and other interested people to take part in discussions, provide feedback on the works in progress, and keep up-to-date with what's happening on the project.
