Abstract

The field of curriculum evaluation is a key part of the educational process. This means that this area needs to be developed continuously and requires ongoing research. This study highlights curriculum evaluation in Oman, different evaluation procedures and methods and instruments used. The need for a framework for curriculum evaluation is a vital part of this research. A whole clear process of developing the framework using selected experts from different organisations including the Ministry of Education and national universities, colleges and institutes, who have the knowledge of both the English teaching context and the curriculum development and evaluation in Oman, is introduced. The research can be selected and agreed with the elements on a good basis for any other framework for the Omani context and even for other contexts
