Thinking Deeply about Primary Education

Sequencing the Primary Curriculum

Listen Later

Episode 196: In this episode of Thinking Deeply about Primary Education, I’m joined by Emma Lennard and Seamus Gibbons, authors of Sequencing the Primary Curriculum. Together, we explore how effective curriculum sequencing can make a profound difference in student learning and teacher practice.

We discuss:

  • What inspired Emma and Seamus to write Sequencing the Primary Curriculum and how their own experiences as educators shaped the book.
  • The biggest challenges in creating a well-sequenced primary curriculum and practical ways schools can overcome them.
  • How teachers can create meaningful links between subjects without sacrificing depth.
  • Strategies for managing differing pupil starting points when sequencing learning content.
  • Expert advice for schools just beginning to rethink their curriculum sequencing.

    • Whether you’re looking to refine your school’s curriculum or seeking strategies to better sequence your own teaching, this episode is filled with valuable insights to guide you on your journey.
