vertically integrated


Explanation:
Depending on the context of your text, I recommend translating the whole sentence this way:

让教育课程具备横向统整与纵贯衔接 --> to ensure the components of the curriculum be horizontally synthesized and vertically integrated

I would say Mainland Chinese writing style (particularly of government or state-funded enterprises) often sounds rhetorical and may not be translated with the same rhetoric nature in the target language esp. English.

vertically integrated


Explanation:
There is this definition, which sounds like it could be similar:
A vertical curriculum links knowledge from one lesson to the next across a program of study, while a horizontal curriculum integrates knowledge across different classes or disciplines.

I think perhaps the Chinese uses 统整 and 衔接 more for balance, and you could collapse it into one word, and say 'horizontally and vertically integrated'.

I started writing an entry than changed it afterwards to this one, forgetting that it was also above. So I should have agreed with the answer above, but I didn't! Sorry.
