Education Scotland and ADES colleagues have worked together to develop a Professional Learning and Leadership (PLL) programme exploring the opportunities and challenges in Curriculum Innovation and Design.

Intended Outcomes:

Strengthened capacity for curriculum design at local level (resulting in curriculum reflecting place-based resource).

Doing this by creating space to:

• Increase knowledge, understanding and professional confidence

• Build networks to support innovation

• Exchange knowledge and share learning

• Support collaboration across sectors, within settings and with partners.

Resulting in confidence in using Scotland’s Curriculum Framework to:

• Develop a curriculum which is relevant for every learner in the context in which they live and learn

• Build on the strengths of communities and partners

• Identify appropriate approaches to evidence impact of curriculum change

• Enable the agency and engagement of children and young people in their learner journeys
