The social foundations encompass the systematic study of groups and institutions in the culture with reference to their contribution to the process and growth of the educational system as well as the established practices in the school system.
In the sociological Foundations, the curriculum designer is actually dealing with cultural values, societal needs and the learners’ backgrounds.
The institutions and forces which make up the culture and related analytical techniques determine the curriculum or programme of education schools will follow.
The curriculum should be able to examine and clarify obstacles prevalent in society which make change in positive direction difficult.
In designing a curriculum based on social foundation the following distinct levels should be considered
i) Purpose of the curriculum
ii) Pressure influencing the curriculum
iii) Characteristics of the students experiencing the curriculum
iv) Role and contribution of other social institutions such as the family and religious institutions
