The Role of the Stakeholders
in Curriculum Implementation
Prepared By:

Meaning of Stakeholders
• Stakeholders are individuals
or institutions that are
interested in the school
curriculum.

1. Learners at the Center of the
Curriculum
For a particular curriculum
design mentioned earlier, the learner
is placed at the center.

The learners are the very
reason why curriculum is developed.

Learners at the Center of the Curriculum

They are the ones who
are directly influenced by
it.
After all, in curriculum
implementation, the concluding
question will always be:
Has the learner learned?

Example of Learners at the Center of Curriculum
• I consider the learner as the center of the
education process. Everything in the
curriculum should revolve around his/her
interest, needs, abilities, and capabilities.
The nature of the learner must be made the
science of learning. The experiences of the
learners must be the starting point in
accomplishing the goals of education, to let
them grow in knowledge, skills, abilities and
attitudes.
Josefa

Example of Learners at the Center of Curriculum

• ‘‘Learners or students are the very reason
why schools exist. It is the school’
responsibility to further develop the
learners’ knowledge, skills, talents and
attitude to face the different situations in
life. It is through a responsive curriculum
that these things can be achieved. A
curriculum is effective if it enables all
learners to relate the different school
experience to their lives.’’
Monique


• It can be the gleaned
that the learners are the
primary stakeholders in
the curriculum.

Interest


• The success of the curriculum can only be
measured by the extent of learning that he
learners have achieved.

…..therefore, a fit between the planned or
written curriculum and the characteristics of
the learner will guarantee success in
education.

2. Teachers as Curriculum
Developers and Implementers
In teaching and learning process,
the other side of the coin is the teacher.
Most curricula start to gain life from the
time it is conceived and written.

Teachers as Curriculum

Primary Role
Writing of the Planning
Teacher

A teacher is a curriculum maker. He/she writes a
curriculum daily through a lesson plan, a unit plan
or a yearly plan.

• The teacher prepares activities for
the students to do.
• The teacher address the goals,
needs interests of the learners by
creating experiences from where
the students can learn.


• The teacher designs, enriches, and
modifies the curriculum to suit the
learner’s characteristics.

Teacher

• Teachers are empowered to
develop their own school curricula
taking into consideration their own
expertise, the context of the school
and the abilities of the learners.

…. By so doing, teachers become
architects of school curriculum

• A developed curriculum remains
enactive, if it is not implemented.
…teacher role’s shifts from a
developer to an implementer.

…from a designer or
technician to a decision maker.


• Curriculum implementation is now giving
life to written materials. To do this, there
is need of another actor, the learners.

• No curriculum will succeed without the
learners.

• The teachers’ role now shifts from
planning to doing.

• Doing here implies guiding, facilitating
and directing activities which will be
done by the students.

• The teachers’ role as an implementer
is very crucial. Oftentimes,
unsuccessful implementation of the
curriculum becomes the root of
educational failure, thus some would
say that the root of the educational
problem is the teacher.

Views of students about the teacher as
curriculum maker and implementer
• ‘‘Teachers shape the school curriculum
by sharing the experiences that they
have and the resources they are capable
of giving or imparting to the learners. But
as the old saying goes.’’ What can you
give if you have nothing to give? Applies
to the demand of teaches in curriculum
implementation.
-Marianna

• Although educational theorist and
practitioners are giving value the idea
of independent learning and learning
how to learn, the role of the teacher in
curriculum implementation has never
diminished.
• No technology can ever replace a
teacher, it will only support the
multifaceted role of the teacher.

3.Curriculum Managers and
Administrators
In a school organization, there is always a
curriculum manager or school administrator.
In fact, for school principals, one of their
functions is being a curriculum manager.

Why are school administrators and curriculum
managers important to curriculum implementation?
• The school administrators play an important
role in shaping the school curriculum
because they are the people who are
responsible in the formulation of the
school’s vision, philosophy, mission and
objectives. They provide necessary
leadership in evaluating teaching personnel
and school program. Keeping records of
curriculum and reporting outcomes are also
the managers’ responsibilities.
- Ceres

Administrators

• Indeed the role of the administrators
can never be ignored. The principle of
command responsibility and
institutional leadership rests on the
shoulders of the school administrators.

Administrators
• The final decision making in terms of the
school’s purpose rests on the shoulders of
school administrators.
• In the academic institutions, school
administrators have a great stake or
concern about what kind of curriculum
their school offer and how these is
implemented.

4. Parents as supporters to the
curriculum
‘‘ My child and my money go to
this school.’’ It simply means that
the parents are the best supporters of
the school, specially because they
are the ones paying for their child’s
education.

How do the parents shape the curriculum
and what are they consider as stakeholders:
1. Effective parental involvement in school
affairs may be linked to parent educational
programs w/c is central to high quality
educational experiences of the children. It
is a well known fact that where you find an
involved parent, you find better
communication between home and school.


2. The parents involvement extends
from the confine of the school to the
homes. The parents become part of
the environment of learning at home.
Parents follow up the lesson of their
children especially in basic
education. Parents provide
curriculum materials that are not
provided in schools.


3. In most schools the Parent
Association is organized.

5. Community Members as
Curriculum Resources

• success in the implementation of the
curriculum requires resources.

Community Members as
• The community members and
materials in the existing local
community can very well
substitute for what is needed to
implement the curriculum.

Community Members as
• Respected community members
maybe included in school boards
• Some can become resource
speakers.

• They can provide local and
indigenous knowledge in school
curriculum

6.OtherStakeholders

• Professional organizations have
shown great influence in school
curriculum.

Other Stakeholders in
Curriculum Implementation
• They are asked by curriculum
specialists to contribute in
curriculum review since they
have a voice in the licensure
examinations, curriculum
enhancement and many more.

• often, professional organization
have a better view of the industry
where the graduates of the
curriculum go.

• Some of these organizations are
those of each profession, like
teachers’ organization, lawyers’
organization, medical doctors’
association, engineers’
organization and many others.

• On the other hand, since all
schools in the country, are under
the regulation of the government
as provided for in the Philippine
Constitution, then the government
has a great stake in curriculum
implementation.

• The government is represented by
the:
1.Department of Education (DepEd)
for basic education curricula.
2.Commission on Higher Education
(CHED) for the tertiary and
graduate education.

3.The Professional
Regulations
Commission (PRC).

• PRC through the Professional Regulatory
Boards, conducts examinations for some degree
programs like the Licensure Examination for
Teachers, Accountants, Dentists, Engineers and
Nurses among others while the Supreme Court
has a professional bar exam to certify lawyers
and the Philippine Medical Association through
its Medical Board of Examiners conducts
medical board exams for the licensure
examination for doctors.

• The DepEd and the CHED have
mandatory and regulatory powers
over the implementation of any
curricula. PRC has high stake in the
school’s curricula because the
graduates of the different tertiary
degrees must be certified as
professionals.
