Project Summary
Enhancing the Student Educational Experience through School-based Curriculum Improvement Leaders is a collaborative project involving central and discipline-based staff, that aims to professionally develop Curriculum Leaders to lead sustainable processes for curriculum improvement aligned with University educational goals and their Schools' strategic directions. They will build upon existing initiatives to improve the quality of learning and cater for the diverse and changing needs of students.

The project commenced in July 2006 and in 2007 Curriculum Improvement Leaders will participate in professional development, the formation of their Community of Practice and Action Research projects.
