Consultation – Proposed changes to P–10 Humanities and Social Sciences curriculum

Pre-primary to Year 10 Humanities and Social Sciences are being reviewed to adopt and adapt the Australian Curriculum version 9 within the Western Australian Curriculum and Assessment Outline. Proposed curriculum changes for Humanities and Social Sciences are now available for consultation.

The Authority has focussed on improving the clarity of the content and providing exemplification of the content to support teachers in planning for teaching, learning and assessment.

Teachers and other stakeholders are invited to review the revised curriculum materials on the Authority’s website and complete the survey to provide feedback to the Authority.

Teachers and other stakeholders are invited to participate in an online consultation information session to learn about the changes and the rationale for the construct and content of the consultation drafts - https://scsa.wa.edu.au/events/consultation-proposed-changes-to-pre-primary-to-year-10-humanities-and-social-sciences-curriculum

Feedback may also be submitted directly to the Authority at WACAO@scsa.wa.edu.au

The revised curriculum materials for Humanities and Social Sciences will be available for familiarisation in 2025 and implementation in 2026. For all other learning areas, teachers are reminded that the current Western Australian Curriculum is the mandated curriculum for Western Australia until advised otherwise.
