Please don't top post, it makes it difficult to follow the thread. Thanks.

So a curriculum has many grades and a grade has many curriculums.
A topic is associated with a set of grade/curriculum combinations.

I think the solution is a join table (you will have to think of a good
name for it), I will say c_g_ts to save typing here. So:
Curriculum has_many c_g_ts and has_many topics through c_g_t and
has_many grades through c_g_t
Grade has_many c_g_ts and has_many curriculums through c_g_t and
has_many topics through c_g_t
Topic has_many ...

CGT belongs_to Curriculum and Grade and Topic.

Does that sound as if it will do the job?
