Abstract

This study explored the concerns of three Standard 1 teachers and three administrators regarding the methodology of the new Thematic Integrated primary curriculum at a primary school in Trinidad and Tobago. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings revealed that the teachers and administrators shared the same concerns regarding time, availability of resources, structure of the school, confidence in content areas, collaboration, and training and support.
