Curriculum Planning: connect the year plan to reviewed teaching

Student Radar helps school staff build year plans, units and lesson intentions around source requirements, with coverage information and a deliberate school review of the intended version.

Coverage mappings and AI suggestions support human review; they do not approve a curriculum or establish pupil impact.

Teaching in context

From the year map to a reviewed teaching sequence

Sequence units, develop teaching plans and preserve the distinction between a saved draft, coverage and an approved edition.

  1. 01

    Make the sequence teachable

    A subject lead opens Rocks and develops its enquiry, knowledge, skills and lesson sequence. Linked lesson plans retain their curriculum source for This lesson, Cover work and Teach mode.

  2. 02

    Keep the shared edition clear

    Save the draft, compare revisions and submit for authorised review. A class can continue using its adopted edition while a revised draft is developed.

  3. 03

    Treat requirement coverage honestly

    Mapping depends on the available reference source. Unknown or partial coverage cannot certify complete curriculum coverage or learning quality.

Curriculum in practice

Curriculum in practice

Treat requirement coverage honestly

Mapping depends on the available reference source. Unknown or partial coverage cannot certify complete curriculum coverage or learning quality.

  • Source framework/specification and version
  • Loaded coverage, missingness and requirement mapping
  • Preview imports, export intended versions and human-review AI proposals

A clear teaching record and next decision

Coverage mappings and AI suggestions support human review; they do not approve a curriculum or establish pupil impact.

A sequence staff can develop into lessons

Unit and lesson relationships retain the purpose behind individual activities.

A reviewable edition for class use

Saved drafts and approved editions remain separate until an authorised decision.

Coverage with its evidence limits intact

Staff can distinguish a genuine mapping gap from unavailable reference data.

Questions about Curriculum Planning

Can a year plan lead into units and lesson outlines?

Curriculum Planning connects the Year plan, unit detail and lesson sequence, with routes from outlines into teaching plans.

Can curriculum plans connect requirements to units and lessons?

The value of a connected school
