Curriculum mapping is the process of documenting what is being taught in a school or educational institution. It is an essential component of educational planning and assessment because it helps educators to:

• Ensure alignment: Ensure that the curriculum is aligned with the educational standards, goals, and objectives set by the institution or governing body and is consistent across different subjects, grade levels, and classrooms.
• Identify gaps: Identify gaps in the curriculum, where important topics or skills may have been missed. 
• Improve communication: Curriculum mapping promotes communication and collaboration among teachers, as they work together to develop a common understanding of the curriculum and ensure that it is being taught effectively.

Curriculum codes that are associated with one or more of the following teaching and learning events below, can be viewed in the Manage Curriculum Page. 

• Badges
• Course Page
• Unit Page
• Learning Activities (Due Work, Task, Quiz, Lesson Plan) 

NOTE: ONLY Learning Activities existing at a Course level will appear in the curriculum mapping.
