This paper presents the results of a preliminary investigation into the innovative capacities of secondary schools. The content of the innovation in this case was the implementation of a core curriculum for Dutch secondary education. The goal of this preliminary investigation was to refine the conceptualization of the innovative capacity of schools. A review of the literature was performed and interviews (N = 46) were conducted based on the results of this review. The nine schools involved in the research were recruited from a "high innovation group" and a "low innovation group." The results of the interviews proved to be largely comparable to the expectations derived from a tentative conceptual framework
