How Teachers are Managing the Process of Implementing the Curriculum Policy: Revised National Curriculum Statement: an Action Research / Case Study of a Rural Primary School in the Eastern Cape, in the King Williams Town District

Abstract

This is a small scale research project carried out by teachers in their own working place. The aim of this action research is to develop teachers professionally as they collaboratively plan and implement C2005 in the revised form. Teachers in this case are regarded as self-developers and teacher-researchers who are responsible for their own professional development. Teachers have been supported and guided by a facilitator, one of their colleagues who took a risk with the intention of improving teachers' knowledge and practice regarding the curriculum management.
