Curriculum: Learning, Teaching and Assessment
Curriculum is all the planned, guided and implemented learning that occurs in a school.
Queensland state schools develop school curriculum plans using the Key Learning Area syllabuses or New Basics organisers.
The P-12 Curriculum Framework captures all curriculum requirements for state schools from Prep to Year 12. The Framework consists of a policy that is supported by a comprehensive set of online guidelines.
Education Queensland recognises the unique characteristics and learning needs of students as they move across the phases of learning.
The Queensland Curriculum Assessment and Reporting (QCAR) Framework enables schools to deliver cohesive learning programs for Years 1-9 and help students achieve deeper levels of understanding. Intellectually challenging and real-world learning experiences will help all students become lifelong learners. Assessing student work against the same standards will increase the consistency of teacher judgements of student achievement across the state.
The Professional Standards for Teachers describe what teachers need to know and be able to do in curriculum to provide relevant and worthwhile learning experiences for individuals and groups of students in Queensland state schools.
