The Manitoba government is setting up a Provincial Curriculum Advisory Panel that will provide input on the development of a framework for curriculum to advance education as part of the Better Education Starts Today (BEST) strategy. The Provincial Curriculum Advisory Panel will provide input into the direction of the provincial curriculum and develop a new provincial curriculum framework that includes clear and measurable standards for what students are expected to learn. A new framework will set out the vision, principles, skills, knowledge and values that are transferable across areas of learning and into life/work and empower students to take responsible actions as they contribute to a just, inclusive and sustainable society. It will support best practices in instruction and assessment, enhance Indigenous perspectives, and embed literacy and numeracy within subject areas. The framework will result in consistency for future kindergarten to Grade 12 curriculum development, and contributes to the BEST pillars of student success – high-quality learning and outcomes, and future ready students.
