Curriculum and Contemporary Issues in Ghanaian Education: Perspectives from Theory and Practice

Curriculum lies at the heart of every educational system. It shapes what learners know, what teachers teach, and ultimately, the kind of society education seeks to build. Yet, for many student teachers and practicing educators, curriculum studies often appears abstract and difficult to connect to real classroom and policy realities. This book was written to bridge that gap by presenting curriculum concepts in a practical, accessible, and contextually relevant manner. Curriculum and Contemporary Issues in Ghanaian Education:
Perspectives from Theory and Practice is intended primarily to support student teachers preparing for their professional roles in schools. It is equally useful for practicing teachers who seek to refresh their knowledge in preparation for promotion interviews, professional examinations, and continuous professional development. Curriculum developers, educational administrators, and emerging scholars in Curriculum and Pedagogy will also find the book valuable. More broadly, all practitioners interested in understanding educational reforms and contemporary issues in Ghanaian education can benefit from this text.
