WHAT IS AN EDUCATIONAL FRAMEWORK?

25/1/2018

 
What is a framework? The Canadian Oxford Dictionary defines a framework as “an essential supporting structure or a basic system.” At a school, a framework is the most essential supporting educational structure, and when designed correctly, it becomes the foundation upon which everything else is built. A framework is not a copy paste from another school; it is something which is custom designed and tailor made. A framework’s design is the direct representation of a school’s vision, philosophy, values, curriculums, and student needs, as shown in the samples below:

The Early Years Framework
Implementing an Educational Framework can impact your school and its learning environment in the following ways:

  • It creates a cohesive teaching & learning culture.
  • It gives administrators/coordinators a bird’s eye view of all curriculums, spanning the early years through high school.
  • It eases collaboration because teachers can see via the framework how educators at a school are connected.
  • The framework may be shared with parents and the community; it provides a concrete visual for parents to understand your school’s vision.
  • When staff are united in a vision student learning is reinforced. Students see how each class they attend relates to their other classes; this consolidation has a great impact on student learning.
  • Staff can come and go, especially at international schools, but the framework will remain a constant as long as the administration’s vision remains the same. Sharing the framework with new staff provides them with an immediate visual of the school’s vision, and a point of reference for how they will fit in their new roles.
  • The framework allows for differentiated planners between the staff: Each department is viewed as a separate entity with different needs, but in the big picture everyone connects, and everyone is moving in a unified direction.
  • A framework at a dual or multiple-language school can link streams and curriculums together.

Can a school afford not to have a framework? I’ll simply ask you this: Can you build your dream home without first constructing and installing the frame that will hold the walls in place? View our brochure to learn more about how we can help you realize your goals.
