To me the BC curriculum is meant to help guide us as teachers, to provide some structure and support in what we need to teach while at the same time giving consistency to students all across the province in what they learn and how they progress from grade to grade.
At the same time while it gives that structure and consistency it also leaves a lot of space for interpretation so that teachers can be flexible in how and what they teach in order to cater to student and teacher interests to create an environment of passion and learning where students want to learn and grow as individuals to both create lifelong learners as well as helping them understand themselves and what they want to pursue through their lives.
