Abstract
This article discusses the nature and complexity of curriculum planning from the perspective of systems theory. It argues that significant curricular change requires systems change which entails impacting change across the institutional, programmatic, and classroom levels of curriculum. Curriculum planning for significant change thus involves a coordination of planning at all three levels, which requires a collaboration of a multitude of participants and representatives from the government, educational agencies, universities, business, schools, and communities at large. Providing teachers with sufficient support and resources is crucial for the planning endeavor.
