Abstract

This paper is a reflective commentary based upon the author’s desk-top audit of twelve international primary school mathematics curricula, and a further amalgamated curriculum framework from the United States referred to as the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. It attempts to identify examples of contemporary and innovative curriculum design, including structural and content components, associated teacher supports, and finally, instruments for standards, assessment and planning in classrooms. Points of discussion attempt to compare international trends with current curricular elements in the Irish context, and point towards possible future directions for consideration by the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment.
