Abstract

This chapter presents a report of global education policies driving reforms locally. The report is from a qualitative case study of an 'Outcomes-based English Curriculum's Implementation' in two local school contexts in Papua New Guinea (PNG). Evidence was drawn from the author's PhD thesis that used the constructivism and interpretivism lenses to give meanings to findings derived deductively and inductively. Data was both primary and secondary and consisted of: classroom observations, document analysis, field notes, structured interviews, post-observation interviews, and focus group discussions. Findings revealed: 1) Impacts of global agenda on local context, and, 2) Sustainability issues. Thus, this chapter stresses the need for collaborative professional development between stakeholders to sustain global education policies locally with the 'Kibung Framework'.
