K-10 Syllabuses
The K-10 Syllabuses are advisory materials. They provide support for teachers as they continue with implementation of the Curriculum Framework. The syllabuses detail content at each year of schooling and phase of development from kindergarten to year 10.
Syllabuses are provided for early childhood (K-3), middle childhood (4-7) and each learning area in early adolescence (8-10). When using these advisory materials, teachers will continue to make professional judgements about when to introduce content based on students' prior learning and achievement.
