How do international schools adapt UK curriculum themes?
International schools typically adapt themes by keeping the core learning intentions and skills progression the same, while localising:
- Texts and stimuli (swap in locally relevant stories, non-fiction, case studies)
- Examples and comparisons (use local geography, history, wildlife, landmarks)
- Visitors and enrichment (museums, community speakers, local cultural events)
- Outcomes and audiences (write for real local purposes: school community, charities, local environment projects)
The key is: retain the learning goal, adapt the context.
