This article describes the procedures followed in developing a theme‐based English as a Foreign Language (EFL) curriculum to be implemented nation‐wide in the Republic of Lebanon. The description covers the procedures followed in forming curricular objectives, developing perspectives on instruction, setting criteria for material selection and adaptation, and devising evaluation guidelines. These objectives were grounded in some national policy initiatives and based on a variety of curricular plans. Similarly, the perspectives on instruction, material development, and evaluation guidelines were developed based on widely accepted theoretical views and effective applications in foreign language education
