We discuss where the process begins, how choices are made about content, sequencing and revisiting, and how curriculum designers think about the relationship between coherence and teacher adaptation.</p><p>The conversation also considers what happens when curriculum thinking moves beyond documents and frameworks and has to become something that teachers can actually use with pupils. It is a discussion about the decisions behind the curriculum before we turn, later in the series, to what happens when that curriculum reaches schools and classrooms.</p>
