Abstract
Miriam Tuohy describes the recent curriculum changes and the new focus on the Understand-Know-Do model. Miriam considers in more detail the New Zealand English curriculum and the role that school libraries can play in supporting and enriching its implementation. As we all face ongoing change, the experiences of our colleagues are invaluable.
