The Curriculum and Standards Framework, published in February 2000,
describes what students should know and be able to do in eight key
areas of learning at regular intervals from the Preparatory year to
Year 10. It provides sufficient detail for schools and the community
to be clear about the major elements of the curriculum and the standards
expected of successful learners.
The eight key learning areas are The
Arts, English, Health and Physical Education, Languages Other Than
English (LOTE), Mathematics, Science, Studies of Society and Environment
(SOSE) and Technology.
