영국의 초등교육과정 개혁 논쟁: 국가교육과정의 내용 및 처방의 적정화 담론을 중심으로 = A review on debate about primary curriculum reform in England: Focusing on discourse about reducing content and prescription of the national curriculum

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Every country that has the national curriculum system is interested in reducing content and prescription of the national curriculum. However, slimming down the national curriculum is not a problem as easy as people think. Although Korean national curriculum has tried to solve this problem with several revisions, we still have crowded and over-prescriptive national curriculum. This problem also has been the main issue of national curriculum reform in England. The purpose of this article is to review the recent debate on appropriateness of content and prescription of primary curriculum in England. Especially, this article focuses on reviewing two reform plans: Rose and Cambridge reform plans which have led this debate. To achieve the purpose, this article discusses the problem in three ways. First, it reviews what problems about content and prescription occur while national curriculum in England has been reformed. Second, the article compares Rose`s and Cambridge`s plan recently suggested to solve too much content and prescription in English primary curriculum. Finally, it discusses several implications that the controversy of English primary curriculum reform can give to improve Korean national curriculum.
