Development Committee supported by the Advisory Inspectorate carry out this

function. A complete review of the curriculum development organisation is

currently being conducted. As part of the curriculum development process,

it is intended to set up small teams of teachers to work on curriculum develon-

ment projects on a full-time basis. It is estimated that about six teachers

will be required for each team, the various teams working on different subject

areas at different times. Temporary teachers will be required to replace

those released by their schools to undertake this work and it is intended that

the remuneration for these teachers should follow the principles set out in

paragraph 4.6.

The Activity Approach

4.12

The Government has decided to encourage the development of the

activity approach particularly in Primary 1 to 3 classes. This less formal,

pupil-orientated approach is described in some detail in the Green Paper and

will not therefore be described here. The steps to be taken to make this

development practicable and encourage more schools to take part are as follows:

a class size of 35 will be permitted in

schools adopting this approach;

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

each class intending to adopt the approach

will receive an initial grant to purchase

classroom equipment and a recurrent subsidy

for the purchase of consumable materials;

each school adopting this approach will be

provided with funds to purchase equipment

to assist in the production of teaching aids;

schools intending to adopt this approach will

be given priority in the systematic retraining

scheme for teachers;
