摘要：The debate surrounding curriculum, change and its management has reached the highest level for sometimes now, because stakeholders involved do not see eye for an eye owing to their ideological differences. Broad discussions around curriculum issues in South Africa have been ongoing for quite sometimes but no effective and tangible results could since being shown. The discussions might be clouded with some biasness’s of omissions and distortions of information thus why results are hard to come forth. The debates, however, failed to deal with the root cause of misunderstandings. Discussion on pertinent issues such as realigning the curriculum to match challenges of the 21Century, as well as focus on the legitimacy and ownership of the curriculum and its content, management and other related aspects which makes the debates relevant. This article seeks to address some of those issues and it deemed it fit to focus its attention to the following purposes: (1) to find out how the curriculum can be realigned in order to meet the challenges of the 21st Century; (2) to explore different ideologies which are central to the curriculum debates; and (3) to present and explain an ideal approach that can be found to be viable for curriculum control in the 21st Century.
