Curriculum integration in the junior secondary school

The integration of curriculum has been of interest to educators since before the start of the 20th century. Today, an increasing number of New Zealand schools are embracing a variety of approaches to curriculum integration. At the same time, educational discourse continues concerning the constructivist approaches developed during the 1980s and early 1990s. This article describes a junior secondary curriculum integration programme, designed around constructivist principles, that has been running at Kuranui College in Greytown since 2000.
