Sarmīte Čerņajeva

Abstract


Issues of improving the efficiency, effectiveness and quality of the education system are very topical in the current process of change around the world. Starting with the next – 2018/2019 – school year in the Latvian schools and preschools (from 1.5 to 18 years) a gradual transition to the improved content of education and the corresponding change of teaching approach will begin. As the result, pupils will develop knowledge, skills and attitudes important for life in the 21st century. The National Curriculum (VISC) project, “A Competency Approach to Learning Content”, provides for the creation of support mechanisms for schools and teachers, municipality and parents to successfully change the teaching approach within five years.
