  The aim of this research is to review of the characteristics of critical literacy curriculum within the approach of emergent curriculum for high school students from curriculum experts’ point of view. The research method was qualitative based on grounded theory. The research population consisted of curriculum experts who were faculty members at state and private universities in Tehran. The sampling was purposeful which continued until theoretical saturation was achieved. A total of 13 individuals participated in this study. The research instrument was a semi-structured interview. The data analysis was based on open, axial and selective coding as prescribed by Strauss and Corbin. Findings indicated that the characteristics of the emergent approach like being non-linear, life-related, conscious and creative, practical and active corresponded with the critical literacy curriculum. As a result, the critical literacy curriculum based on the intellectual interactions of teachers and students, is a constructive approach to involve them in making decisions related to analysis of unfair power relations in economic, political, social and cultural structures for reform, so that it brings about spiritual construction by strengthening criticism and self-evaluation, and socially, transmission of cultural and national values by accepting and respecting the ideological, ethnic and racial differences of other nations, including peaceful coexistence Manuscript profile
