• Abstract:

  The aim is to show how the concept of "Curricular Flexibility" has been understood in schools and how it has varied over the decade 2010-2019. The aim was to discuss different opinions on curricular flexibility and show some less explored perspectives. Despite being a recent concept due to international synchronization in terms of student results and success rates, it is already a rising topic for authors discussing educational issues.
  The research tool used to carry out the study was the internet through the B-on and Google Scholar search engines. This was a qualitative approach, whose methodology was identified as a systematic theoretical analysis.
  In fact, we found that there have been no substantial changes in terms of the meaning associated with the term "flexibility"; however, we did find that there are different approaches and, with this, new questions arise.
