Development of the national curriculum

Curriculum development process Shape Papers Interim National Curriculum Board established Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority established K-10 English, Mathematics, Science, History Revisions and consultation Preparation for implementation Draft out for comment Implementation Other subjects following

Sequence of curriculum development Phase 1  English, mathematics, science, history Phase 2  Geography, languages other than English, the arts Phase 3  Economics, business, civics and citizenship, health and physical education, design and technology, information and communications technology

General issues faced Getting the model right – ‘learning entitlements’  Disciplines with specifications of content  General capabilities  Current priorities to ensure coverage Getting the content right  Developmental sequences  Avoiding too much differentiation Dealing with interstate differences  In style of curriculum  In extent of centralisation Matching the best in the world

Form of the national curriculum

The curriculum will be delivered online (developmental version of website demonstrated via live link in actual presentation) Time allocations  Thinking for Phase 1 in the Shape of the Australian Curriculum Setting bounds around English, maths, science and history Writers, nevertheless, produced too much in the draft  Thinking for full curriculum in revised Shape paper being finalised for Ministers Setting bounds around the curriculum with notional time allocations for writers No specification of time allocations Creating space for school programs and activities

Place of religious education Teaching on religion  Confessional teaching There will be time available in faith-based schools timetables Provisions in government schools is a matter for jurisdictions  Teaching about religion – Melbourne Declaration …nurture an appreciation of and respect for social, cultural and religious diversity… There is no evident place in the learning areas nominated Teaching about the role of faith  Provisions in history curriculum on impact of faith (+/-) …role of religious and political leaders (Yr 5)  Primarily a matter for resources rather than curriculum
