• The school leader has to be competent in performing the following self-explanatory functions to ensure the successful implementation of the curriculum:
1. Motivate interest of all stakeholders.
2. Encourage participation and involvement of all stakeholders.
3. Arbitrate conflicting interests of various groups.
4. Synthesize divergent viewpoints.

ensuring the effective and efficient operation of the school system aimed to produce the desired outcomes
• The main objective is to insure that in implementation of the curriculum, human and material resources are optimally used to produced the expressed objectives.
Beauchamp’s Curriculum

• Has the ff. crucial stages for planning which generally correspond to the curriculum development approach for SEDP:
1. Determining the arena or setting for curriculum engineering: country, school, classroom
2. Selecting key players and their involvement in the planning process: curriculum specialists, teachers, administrators, students, lay citizens, and non-teaching staff
3. Establishing procedures in developing the curriculum design
4. Determining implementation procedures

Intellectual-academic Approach
• Emphasizes the importance of theories and principles in curriculum planning
• Influenced by the philosophical and intellectual works of Dewey (1916), Morrison (1926) and Bode (1927)
• Attempts to analyze and synthesize the historical development, cultural demands and philosophical ideas which underpin the curriculum, including issues and trends
