The article introduces the history curriculum reconstruction process and its surrounding developments since 1994 until the release of the National Curriculum Statement in 2003. It then focuses on the curricular intentions which reflect the reorganization of history teaching and serve as benchmark for teachers. Using empirical data gathered in Afrikaans schools, I describe how classroom practices represent the history curriculum. The data indicates that schools provide space for curriculum modification and the creation of a “hidden curriculum.”Online-Ressource (PDF-Datei: 23 Seiten; 150,2 KB)engAttribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/371.32Online-Publikationurn:nbn:de:0220-2014-00093Afrikaner identityclassroom practicecurriculum reformSouth Africaoutcome-based educationhistory education
