Foundation–10 Curriculum

New Intercultural Capability resources

A number of new resources are available to support the teaching and learning of the Victorian Curriculum F–10: Intercultural Capability.

The new resources include additional units of work, with annotated work samples and formative assessment rubrics. These were developed in collaboration with primary and secondary teachers from government, Catholic and independent schools, as part of the Intercultural Capability Project in 2018. VCAA thanks the participating schools for their involvement.

The new resources can be found on the What is Intercultural Capability? webpage.

English as an Additional Language F–10 Curriculum update

A revised full consultation draft of the new English as an Additional Language (EAL) F–10 Curriculum is now available on the VCAA website. The new EAL curriculum is intended to be used by all teachers with EAL students in their classrooms, from Prep to Year 10. There are also new resources to support the teaching of EAL learners across all curriculum areas, including a diagnostic assessment tool and guidance on how to determine the most appropriate pathway for each EAL learner.

The curriculum and supporting resources are available for schools and teachers to review and provide feedback. Schools can also choose to trial the implementation of the new curriculum.

Feedback can be submitted via the VCAA website between Tuesday 23 April 2019 and Thursday 29 August 2019.

A final version of the EAL curriculum will be published in December 2019, with full implementation of the curriculum expected to commence in Term 1 in 2020.
