The Australian Curriculum is a national framework that outlines what students in Australia should learn from Foundation to Year 12. It aims to provide a consistent and high-quality education across all states and territories, ensuring that students develop essential skills and knowledge in various subjects, including English, Mathematics, Science, and Humanities. Developed by the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA), the curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, creativity, and the ability to engage with complex issues. It also incorporates cross-curriculum priorities, such as Indigenous Education and Sustainability, to promote a well-rounded education that reflects Australia's diverse society.
