What Is the Science Curriculum Health Check?
- The Health Check is not a free consultation. It is not a sales call. It is a structured, paid diagnostic — designed to give you a precise, written assessment of where your science programme stands and what it needs. In 90 minutes on Zoom, ChalkPlan works through a structured diagnostic of your science curriculum, your assessment system, and your teacher development programme. Within 5 business days, you receive a written report identifying your 3 to 5 highest-priority gaps, the root cause of each one, and the specific options available for addressing them.
This is not a conversation that ends with a brochure. It ends with a written document you can put in front of your leadership team and act on immediately.
Who Is This For?
The Health Check is designed for decision-makers in institutions that take science education seriously.
| Client type | You need this if… |
|---|---|
| Cambridge, IB or any international schools | Your exam results are not reflecting the effort your teachers are putting in. Your curriculum has not been formally reviewed in 2+ years. You have a new Head of Science, a new campus, or an inspection approaching. |
| Education NGOs | You are designing or evaluating a science programme for a donor-funded project and need a credible, independent diagnostic before you commit to a full curriculum build. |
| Government education authorities | You need a rapid, evidence-based assessment of a science programme before a curriculum reform decision or a donor review. |
| New school campuses | You are building a science curriculum from scratch and need to know what the gaps will be before the school opens — not after the first exam cycle. |
What You Receive
| Deliverable | What it contains |
|---|---|
| Pre-session questionnaire | Sent immediately after booking. 21 structured questions covering your curriculum, assessment system, and teacher development. Takes 8 to 12 minutes. Your answers mean the 90-minute session starts at diagnostic depth, not at introductions. |
| 90-minute online session | A structured diagnostic conversation covering your school type, year groups, curriculum framework, current challenges, and most recent results. The specialist arrives having read every answer. The session is focused, not exploratory. |
| Written Health Report (8 to 12 pages) | Delivered within 5 business days. Covers: the 3 to 5 highest-priority gaps in your programme, the root cause of each gap, specific recommendations for addressing each one, and a suggested next steps section ordered by impact. |
| $497 fee credit | The full $497 is credited against any ChalkPlan project you commission within 90 days. The diagnostic pays for itself the moment you move to a full engagement. |
Why Is It Not Free?
- When a consultation is free, both parties approach it differently.
- Clients come with vague questions. Consultants give vague answers. The conversation circles without landing. Both parties leave with nothing concrete.
- When there is an investment attached — even a modest one — clients come prepared. With specific challenges. With real questions. With the data and documents that make a proper diagnosis possible.
- The conversation is completely different. And the written report you receive is a document you can share with your leadership team and act on immediately — not a set of notes from a phone call.
- 40 to 60% of Health Check clients commission a full ChalkPlan project within 60 days. Not because they feel obligated. Because the report makes the path forward clear.
Why ChalkPlan?
The Health Check is delivered by Hiba Zeeshan — not a junior associate, not a generalist consultant.Type your paragraph here
| Credential | Why it matters for your diagnostic |
|---|---|
| Cambridge Master Trainer — Biology and Chemistry | She trained the trainers. The Cambridge specification has no blind spots for her. |
| Government STEAM Lead, Sindh — 2500+ schools, 100,000+ students | At that scale of implementation, curriculum and assessment programmes break down in very specific, predictable ways. She has seen all of them. |
| AKU-IED — Aga Khan University Institute for Educational Development | Certificate in Education leadership and management |
| University of Illinois — Instructional Design | Systematic, evidence-based approach to curriculum architecture — not intuition-led practice. |
| 17+ years in science education | Classroom teacher, department head, government curriculum lead, Cambridge trainer. Every angle of the problem. |
What the Health Check Leads To
The written report identifies your highest-priority gaps and points to the specific ChalkPlan service best suited to address each one. Here is what that typically looks like:
| If the report finds… | The natural next step is… |
|---|---|
| Curriculum gaps — misalignment between written, taught, and assessed curriculum | Science Curriculum Development & Audit — from $2,500 |
| Assessment gaps — questions not aligned to objectives, inconsistent marking | Science Assessment Design & Standardisation — from $1,200 |
| Teacher practice gaps — CPD needed, inquiry-based teaching absent | Science Teacher Professional Development — from $800 |
| Environmental education gaps — sustainability programme missing or underdeveloped | Environmental Science Curriculum & Education — from $2,000 |
| Multiple gaps across curriculum, assessment, and teacher development | Full programme engagement discussed directly — contact hello@chalkplan.com |
The $497 Health Check fee is credited in full against whichever service you commission within 90 days.

Not Sure If You Need This Yet?
If any of the following sound familiar, the Health Check will give you clarity:
- Your Cambridge or IB science results are not reflecting the effort your teachers are putting in — and nobody can clearly explain why.
- Your curriculum says one thing. Your teachers are teaching another. Your assessments are testing a third.
- You know your science programme needs developing but you do not know where to start or what to prioritise.
- You have a new head of science, a new campus, or an inspection approaching.
- A previous curriculum revision produced documents that looked excellent and changed nothing in classrooms.
- You are designing a science programme for a funded programme and need a credible external diagnostic before you commit
- If you are reading this page and something above resonates, the Health Check is the right starting point. It is designed exactly for that moment.
