Abstract

The paper aims at determining the roles of various participants in the process of education and moral education. Given the fact that the goal of every curriculum is to make school education as quality as possible, determining the aforementioned roles is an important part of this effort, since it is what defines to what extent the curriculum is going to be implemented, as well as the overall quality of education and moral education in school. In order to realise this goal, it is necessary to accomplish two tasks, that is, to determine what particular participants of the said process can assume a particular role in implementing a new curriculum and define it in more details. For that reason, the paper first discusses the notion of curriculum, then it moves towards the notion of school curriculum rather than teaching curriculum, which is only a segment of it. In addition, the paper only discusses in detail roles of some participants of the process, whether direct or indirect, starting from the principal, the teacher, members of professional services, the educator, the student, and the parent. In doing so, the author does not refer to established roles, but only to those that result from the specific notion of curriculum as an overall agency, in particular the contemporary school curriculum. With regard to that, the paper is founded on positive international experiences, scholarly and professional discussions on the roles given, as well as on personal reflection on the matter concerning the specificities of our schooling system, society, and curriculum.
