According to the Public Relations and International Affairs Department of the Educational Research and Planning Organization, Ali Latifi, the head of the Educational Research and Planning Organization, attended the Special Education Line program (Part One) and, while referring to the national curriculum, said: "The curriculum is one of the most important elements and components of the educational system and the transformation documents that the organization has designed to carry out the transformational tasks corresponding to the curriculum."
Beginning of the pilot implementation of the school curriculum
He continued: "The upcoming academic year is a special year because some of the measures that have been taken in the past one to two years in the field of design will enter the first phase of implementation in schools this year."
Referring to the details of the pilot implementation of the school curriculum, Latifi said: "What is anticipated this year, and we hope that its limited pilot implementation will be carried out in two provinces, two regions in each province, in a favorable manner, is the school curriculum in the first grade of elementary school."
He continued, adding: "The change in learning packages, or first-grade textbooks, will be implemented on a trial basis in eight schools in Districts 2 and 16 of Tehran, and Rayyak and Qods cities in Tehran Province, starting next month."
Referring to the changes in the curriculum, a member of the Supreme Council of Education stated: "The changes in the curriculum begin with the elementary curriculum, and we hope that they will continue in other courses in the coming years."
Referring to the need for curriculum change, he stated: "If we are looking for a change in the curriculum, we must have an integrated school curriculum for the school, and school activities must be seen within an integrated framework."
Continuing the conversation, the head of the Educational Research and Planning Organization added, "The transformation we are seeking in the organization, the pilot implementation of which will begin for the first grade, actually means enriching the hands of teachers and school staff with useful educational materials and resources and providing them with the possibility of flexibility and interaction."
Establishing an Implementation Support System in the Ivy School Curriculum. He continued: "Establishing an implementation support system is another aspect of the transformation in the curriculum, which will be seen in the pilot implementation from October this year." A member of the Council of Deputies of the Ministry of Education in this program clarified: "Regarding the first grade and the pilot implementation, all of its course titles are actually new, and quality work has been presented."
Nationwide implementation of the sixth-grade workbook and technology after two years of pilot implementation
Referring to the newly designed textbooks, Latifi said: "The pilot implementation of the three textbook titles of the sixth, seventh, and eighth grade workbook and technology will continue according to plan, and based on the planning, the sixth-grade workbook and technology will be implemented nationwide in the upcoming academic year, and this is the first year that it will be implemented nationwide after two years of limited pilot implementation."
The pilot implementation of the book "From Me to God" begins in the first year of secondary school

This year, this book will be implemented in parallel with the book "Messages from Heaven" for the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. This means that some provinces will continue the trial implementation of the newly written book, while others will continue the previous book."
Pilot implementation of a handwriting training workbook to improve Iranian handwriting
