Kopsavilkums	Critical curriculum analysis examines educational curricula — their content, organisation, and underlying assumptions — through a critical theory lens. Drawing on the work of Apple, Giroux, and Freire, it asks whose knowledge counts, whose interests the curriculum serves, and how schooling reproduces or challenges social inequalities. Rather than treating curriculum as neutral, it treats it as an ideologically saturated artifact shaped by relations of power, race, class, and gender.	Curriculum analysis is a systematic research method for examining the content, structure, goals, and underlying assumptions of educational curricula — including written syllabi, textbooks, lesson plans, and policy documents. By mapping what is taught, how it is sequenced, and what values are embedded, researchers and educators can evaluate alignment with learning objectives, identify gaps or biases, and guide curriculum reform across all levels of education.
