Curriculum Revolutions is a tool to assist schools in creating, building and maintaining a joined-up curriculum that is cohesive and coherent. Martin Robinson’s unique curriculum wheel leads you through a continuous cycle of planning, designing, delivering, reflecting upon and reviewing your curriculum.
The process will involve your managers, teachers and pupils, ensuring all understand the importance of a well-functioning curriculum as the cornerstone of the school and the quality of education it delivers. Good curriculum design is a collaborative affair, so each revolution of the wheel focuses on how to get staff working together productively.
Most importantly, from a design point of view, Curriculum Revolutions explores the potential pitfalls in the curriculum shape that a school adopts, either consciously or unconsciously. Robinson argues that a sophisticated understanding of the underlying structure, or ‘thought architecture’, can make all the difference to the quality of the continuing, unfolding project of good curriculum design.

Tom Sherrington, author of The Learning Rainforest and Teaching WalkThrus
If, from the title alone, you are expecting some kind of revolutionary anarchy ... well, you won't find it here. That would be misplaced for the serious business at hand - our Trivium-inspired Philosopher Kids won't emerge from chaos. Instead, you'll find a powerful conceptual framework - designed with the artful craftsmanship of a beautiful clock and with the insightful understanding of how teachers thrive; neither always alone or always in collaboration but forever part of a continuous bold and ambitious process than we can best achieve together.
