Guides for putting the work into practice
The guides on this page are the published CBC pieces: schemes of work, lesson plans, syllabus coverage and classroom records. The journal cards below are published essays. A programme pack that is not listed does not exist yet.
Prepare your school’s first week
Begin with school setup: check classes and learner records, assign staff roles and agree the first workflow. Then introduce planning, attendance or assessment at a pace the team can manage. The onboarding pages provide a sequence to discuss with staff and help identify questions before regular school use begins.
Plan for continued use
Name a local contact for staff questions and set a time to review the first cycle. Record the barriers that affect participation, from missing information to training needs. Follow the implementation playbooks for a broader rollout conversation, and contact Kurasa when migration, training or multi-school support needs to be scoped.

CBC schemes of work
A scheme of work turns a term of the curriculum design into weekly lessons you can teach, check and adjust.
ExploreCBC lesson plans
A lesson plan connects an outcome, the activities that build it and the evidence that shows it was learned.
ExploreSyllabus coverage tracking
A short, regular check of what has been taught against what was planned helps leaders support teachers before assessments, not after.
ExploreClassroom data and EMIS
National systems hold administrative records. Schools create classroom records every day. Both are needed, and they answer different questions.
