Hidden curriculum This term has various interpretations and in general it refers to unofficial norms, behaviours and values that teachers teach and students learn at school, or that are directly/indirectly transferred by the school culture or ethos, and which are not necessarily a product of conscious intention. The hidden curriculum acknowledges that schooling takes place in a broad social and cultural environment that has an influence on learning. Increasingly referred to as ‘school-related factors’.
	High-stakes test/exam An examination which may have significant consequences for learners, such as determining their future educational pathways. Also refers to forms and uses of assessment that may be of ‘high stakes’ for teachers and schools within an accountability system that links results to rewards and sanctions. See also ‘Centrally-set examinations’.
	Higher-order thinking See ‘Bloom’s taxonomy’.
	Holistic learning approach An approach that seeks to fully activate all aspects of the learner’s personality (intellect, emotions, imagination, body) for more effective and comprehensive learning.
	Homework Any activity related to the school programme that learners are asked to complete outside of lesson time at school and that can take place in the home or in the community. The type of homework set by schools 30 varies. In the early years, activities are usually based on supporting literacy, numeracy and thinking skills. In the junior phase of learning, homework is more likely to focus on reading, revising, report writing, investigating and project work. Learners in the senior years are likely to undertake a range of homework activities dependent on the course of study being completed.
