Secretary of State Bogdan Cristescu and Gabriel Vrînceanu, head of Curriculum – CNPEE development service, brought a series of explanations clarifying certain problems that plan on the framework plans in public debate.
The most important statements
“A broad, strategic process.”
“Two important stages: the framework plans will enter into force in 2026-2027. The major change starts in the 11th grade, from 2028 – 2029. A very wide process. Any postponement stage leads to cascade delays. ”
“We enjoy the interest granted by the teachers of these framework plans.”
“Frames: flexibility and autonomy for school and teachers, and the student’s decision in the school offer is very high.”
“We want to create good citizens and good specialists.”
“The common trunk is valid for all students in Romania. Unique to everyone. No discipline was removed. ”
“The common trunk establishes the level we give to the mandatory baccalaureate tests. Let’s not interpret the idea of plans through the baccalaureate exam, as it is now. ”
“The programs will be reorganized. The baccalaureate program will follow the common trunk in the 9th and 10th grade ”
“The number of rules remains constant or even increases. The didactic norm can also include performance hours, remedial education, etc. ”.
“The framework plans also brought the possibility of a flexible specialized curriculum, and the curriculum at the student’s decision increased as a weight. Not all students in the same class will make the same object. ”
“Children can reorganize. Students study Latin because they are concerned about linguistics or philology. Through our proposal, these students will choose to say three of a class legal sciences.
“Students will choose what is important to them.”
“The offer of the school is not totally free. We will introduce the obligation of the school to take into account things related to the student’s personal development. National Offer: We come to support it with already piloted programs ”.
Latin tongue satu: matter exists in the specialized curriculum
“The Latin time was in the common trunk. We proposed to be only in CS because Latin is not now studied by all the students of Romania, but only in the humanist, more in philology. In a way you can do Latin for the students who entered with 5 and otherwise you do it with the students who entered note 10 “.
“Philology has provided for flexible CS and CDOS between 16 and 26 hours in total high school. The same approach is valid for social sciences ”.
“We understand the concern. The framework plans does not appear, indeed, explicitly Latin in CS ”.
Geography can be taught at the students’ decision decision
“The geography was not removed. It’s fake. It remained mandatory in the 9th and 10th grade. He passed the CS to the theoretical chain. At the human in the 9th and 10th grade the same hours remained. At the others he diminished by one hour. But the students can do it through CDOS ”.
“In the humanistic profile, social sciences: the number of hours allocated Geography is identical to the one provided in the current framework plans. CDOS brings an additional. ”
“At the philology the geography is supplemented by one hour in the 11th and 12th grade. CDOS can also supplement. ”
Holocaust and Jewish history, compulsory matter by law
“Let us not induce panic and unthinking.”
“The history of the Jews: they were not introduced through this project of framework plans. Matter is in the second year of study. Our proposal respects the legislation in force ”.
“This discipline is introduced by law, voted by the Romanian Parliament.”
“The history of Jews and communism exists in the common trunk in all classes.”
“The history of the Romanians: the program will be reorganized according to your requirements. History has a important role in flexible CS in humanistic profile. In philology it has an allocation between 16 -26 hours overall high school ”.
“The flexible CS allows the school to introduce hours from the specified curcular areas. The teacher proposes disciplines adapted to the need of students. Students have the power to make important choices. CS gives the opportunity to schools as depending on the human resource to make adequate proposals. ”
“If we talk about specialization, the number of hours is higher.”
“In the 9th and 10th grade students learn history.”
“The law was considered.”
Mandatory evidence was announced at the baccalaureate exam
“Modern language 2: it is maintained in TC one hour a week for all students.”
“Baccalaureate: Mandatory subjects: Romanian language and literature, modern language skills 1 and 2, digital skills. All the others in TC are corresponding to the baccalaureate tests, but they will not be mandatory for all students. ”
“All high school graduates will go through high school. In TC there will be subjects for all, for their general culture ”.
“Foreign language: Modern language 1 – is taught in four years of study, modern language 2 is taught in two years of study.
“The modern language 2: it can appear in the CS and give the teacher Freedom to teach this language at the level of his students.”
“Specialized curriculum: an element that increases the flexibility of the curriculum. As is in other educational systems outside the country. Let’s give the chance of students who want to learn an intensive subject. It is a first step for the theoretical chain. In technological, this flexibility could be through a larger package of modules. Teachers can guide students and be able to relate to the level of partnership with economic agents. The specialized curriculum will be chosen and announced in advance, before the beginning of the school cycle. ”
