A focus on collaborative, supportive and purposeful leadership for teaching is associated with a culture of strong teamwork and student-focused approaches (Ramsden, 2003, p237).

HoS/HoD and SDTLs/DDTLs as academic leaders in Schools and Departments are currently faced with many drivers for change many of which potentially have an impact on what and how we teach. The Curriculum Framework offers a way in which those imperatives most pertinent to your School can be addressed by your staff in your curriculum in a structured and well-supported way. As 'sponsor' of the curriculum review, you have a clear role in creating a climate for curriculum change. Your actions will set the tone for the review.
