The aim of the project “Developing Curricula Culture: Empowering schools to develop and implement school curriculum“ was to empower stakeholders in the educational system for efficient development, implementation and evaluation of school curricula in compulsory education. As the development and implementation of school curricula in schools imply a synergistic agency of a broad spectrum of educational actors, this project aimed to include numerous relevant stakeholders in the educational system – representatives of competent agencies, school principals, teachers and other school professionals. The project involved 60 schools from 10 counties.

The project resulted in two publications:

• „Development and evaluation of school curriculum: terms and procedures“ (in Croatian)
• „School curriculum: theoretical and practical aspects“ (in Croatian)
