Australian Curriculum

Acknowledgement for this blog must go to the edna website.

The Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) has as its mission the development of an inclusive and futures-oriented curriculum from Kindergarten to Year 12, and will
include the development of a continuum of learning in literacy and numeracy skills.




Key documents for the K-10 and senior years Australian Curriculum are now available for download.

A second phase of work has begun to develop the Australian curriculum for language, geography and the arts.

As a third phase of Australian Curriculum development, ACARA has been asked by the the Ministerial Council for
Education, Early Childhood Development and Youth Affairs to provide advice on how the remaining
learning areas and subjects listed in the 2008
Melbourne Declaration on Education Goals for Young Australians might best be addressed.
