[Situational Analysis] Situational Analysis for the GCED Curriculum Development & Integration (CDI) Project in Sri Lanka (Volume 2)

This situational anaylsis was commissioned by APCEIU as a background paper to inform key issues and strategies for its GCED Curriculum Development and Integration Project (GCED CDI) in Sri Lanka.

The situational analysis of Sri Lanka comprises two volumes:

[Volume 1] Global Citizenship Concepts in the Curriculum of Sri Lanka: Analysis and Initial Recommendations (2019. IBE)

[Volume 2] Global Citizenship Education Curriculum Development & Integration: Situational Analyses under the 2nd Round Project (Sri Lanka) (2019. NIE)

[Volume 2] Global Citizenship Education Curriculum Development & Integration: Situational Analyses under the 2nd Round Projects (Sri Lanka) (2019. NIE)

The second volume, "Global Citizenship Education Curriculum Development & Integration: Situational Analyses under the 2nd Round Project (Sri Lanka)", provides an analysis of the presence of GCED concepts in Sri Lanka's secondary school curriculum, focusing on five subjects—Civic Education, English Language, Science, Mathematics, and Arts—across Grades 6 to 11. Based on an analysis of syllabi, Teachers' Guides, and pupils' textbooks using a GCED-focused study tool, the report also presents preliminary suggestions for strengthening GCED within the Sri Lankan education system in the context of ongoing curriculum reform processes.
