New Course

Curriculum change is one of the most significant system adjustments a school can undertake, often making people feel things are overwhelming, out-of-control and disjointed. Leading Curriculum Change is a practical, self-paced, online course designed to help school leaders move from overload into action. Across four focused modules, you’ll explore common failure points in school-wide change and build a kete of concrete strategies to increase clarity and direction, foster purposeful action, and create sustained momentum.

From Overwhelm to Focus

When everything feels important, leaders need to create focus. This module explores how to reduce initiative overload, honour what already works, and identify what is essential and what is expendable.

From Compliance to Commitment

Curriculum change is more likely to succeed when people feel ownership rather than just obligation. This module looks at how leaders can provide both freedom and frame: clarifying what’s in scope, what’s out of scope, and where teams genuinely have space to take control.

From First Steps to Following Through

Many changes begin with energy but fade once things get busy. This module focuses on how to make curriculum change stick by building it into the rhythms, routines, expectations, and culture of your school.

About the course

This course is ideal for principals, senior leaders, curriculum leaders, team leaders and heads of department who want to lead curriculum change with greater clarity, confidence, and follow-through. By the end of the course, you will be able to: - Prioritise and roadmap a small number of high-impact implementation actions. - Ensure the change is aligned with vision, values and organisational culture. - Build ownership, commitment and coherence among staff, and - Manage change fatigue and support sustained, effective improvement.
