Submission to NSW Curriculum Review

NAAE made a submission to the NSW Curriculum Review in December 2019, focusing on the five art forms of dance, drama, media arts, music and visual arts. The submission was developed by representative members of the NAAE, including ACARA’s former Senior Project Officer and lead writers of the Shape Paper for The Australian Curriculum: The Arts.

The submission notes that ‘a recent review of these documents conducted by NESA found overwhelming support for The Australian Curriculum: The Arts from predominately NSW teachers and relevant arts education organisations, with particular emphasis placed on the clear and scaffolded sequential learning that occurs, the adoption of a common language and vocabulary for teachers to engage with, and the focus on student-centered learning.’
