Curriculum Harmonization - Mathematics grade 2

PREFACE

The development of learning outcomes for the core curriculum in OECS primary schools is an
essential part of the harmonization of OECS educational systems. The curriculum harmonization
process commenced with discussions between the OECS Education Reform Unit (OERU) and
educational personnel in all member countries (See Eastern Caribbean Education Reform
Project: Initiative on curriculum and remediation – Design Mission report, February 1998).
Subsequent to the preparation of the report curriculum officers, teacher educators and evaluation
officers, in a sub-regional workshop in Antigua and Barbuda, developed basic principles for
mathematics in the primary school. All mathematics curricula from member countries were
examined during the workshop. The Report of proceedings: sub-regional curriculum and
remedial planning workshop held on October 25-30, 1998 presents a full account of the
decisions taken at the workshop.
