STAKEHOLDERS

1. Learners at the Center of the

Curriculum

- Learners are the very reason a curriculum is developed.

- They are the ones who are directly influenced by it.

- Learners in all levels make or unmake the curriculum by their active and direct involvement.

“I consider the learner as the center of the

educational process. Everything in the curriculum

should revolve around his/her interests, needs,

abilities, and capacities. The nature of the learner

must be made the science of learning. the

experiences of the learners must be the starting point

in accomplishing the goals of education, to let them

grow in knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes.”- Josefa

“In the selection of the subject matter, the needs of the

individual learner should receive proper emphasis. To do this, the

course of study must be organized around the changing nature

and development needs within the cultural context of the learners.

Organizing curriculum to meet individual differences is compatible

with democratic principles. Curriculum makers and implementers

need to know what differences there are in the cultural

background, mental systems, and approaches to problem solving

of the learners. All of these considerations will enable the learner

to achieve the richness of experiences in a particular curriculum.”- Venus

“Learners or students are the very reason why

schools exist. It is the schools’ responsibility to further

develop the learners’ knowledge, skills, talents, and

attitude to face the different situations in life. It is

through a responsive curriculum that these things can

be achieved. A curriculum is effective if it enables all

learners to relate the different school experiences to

their lives.”- Monique

2. Teachers as Curriculum Developers

and Implementers- Planning and writing the curriculum.- Is a curriculum maker.- Prepares activities for the students

to do.- Addresses the goals, needs,

interests of the learners by creating experiences from where the students can learn.

- Designs, enriches, and modifies the curriculum to suit the learner’s characteristics.

“Teachers are the most crucial persons in the

implementations of a curriculum. As an adult in the teaching-

learning process, he/she holds the key in operationalizing

what activities have been planned. With the full support of the

principal, supervisor and other school administrators, the

teachers who are empowered will be able to select, organize,

carry out and evaluate learning experiences of a curriculum.

His/her ability to translate what has been written to action is

the key to effective curriculum implementations.”- Fel

“Teachers shape the school curriculum by

sharing the experiences that they have and the

resources they are capable of giving or

imparting to the learners. But as the old saying

goes, “What can you give if you have nothing to

give?” applies to this demand of teaches in

curriculum implementation.”- Marianna

2.Curriculum Managers and

Administrators- Supervise curriculum

implementations, select, and recruit new teachers, admit students, procure equipment and materials needed for effective learning.

- Plan for the improvement of school facilities and physical plants.

“The school administrators play an important role

in shaping the school curriculum because they are the

people who are responsible in the formulation of the

schools’ vision, philosophy, mission and objectives.

They provide necessary leadership in evaluating

teaching personnel and school program. Keeping

records of curriculum and reporting learning outcomes

are also the managers’ responsibilities.”- Ceres

“The school administrators have the responsibility

of running the entire school effectively. They have to

oversee the smooth transition of the child from one

grade level to another and they should see to it that

the curriculum is implemented vertically or horizontally

with very minimal overlaps. Instead there should be

continuity, relevance, balance, so that overall

curriculum will produce a well rounded person.”- Christine
