This book explores how curriculum reform is interconnected with
policy, practice and society. Curriculum reform is increasingly
associated with efforts to better the lives of citizens and provide
a competitive edge to national prosperity. Educational policy and
practice have been the subject of unprecedented convergence
worldwide in the quest for so-called 21st century skills. This book
offers a case study of curriculum reform within the Republic of
Ireland, focusing on antecedents, processes and outcomes of
government efforts to evoke fundamental curriculum realignment at
lower secondary level. Set against a backdrop of fluctuating
economic fortunes and concerns about academic standards and
educational equity, this volume has wider relevance beyond Ireland
for any system undertaking education reform at scale.

All teachers are responsible for assessing the children they teach
and the outcomes of any assessment are important for individual
learners and the wider school. This book is your one-stop-shop for
understanding assessment in schools. It covers formative and
summative approaches used across primary and secondary education,
supporting a balanced overview with policy examples drawn from the
UK, Ireland and wider international contexts. Designed as a
pragmatic handbook for new teachers and those training to teach,
the book discusses key principles of assessment, before providing
guidance on developing and carrying out assessment in the
classroom, and looking at how assessment information can be used to
benefit your teaching and the children you teach.
