Australian Curriculum Draft K- 10 - Feedback open

The long awaited first draft for a K-10 History Curriculum for Australian Students is now published and open for consultation.

www.australiancurriculum.edu.au is the consultation portal which has been set up to enable this feedback process.

The HTAV will be responding as a key stake holder but encourages all history teachers to examine the document and respond to it.

The VCAA will also be holding some consultations over the coming weeks. Keep posted to the ACARA website here as details become available.
