From my experience designing competency-based curricula, the main challenges include aligning learning outcomes with assessment, ensuring teachers are trained for facilitative roles, and integrating competencies across subjects without overloading students. For secondary education, I would recommend clearly defining competencies, scaffolding skills progression, incorporating formative assessments, and providing professional development for teachers. Pilot testing modules before full-scale implementation and gathering student feedback can help smooth adoption and ensure the curriculum truly develops the intended skills.
