School Curriculum & Standards : Curriculum and Assessment Outline
The School Curriculum and Standards Authority sets out what Schools in WA need to report and assess against. The website says "The Authority’s role is to provide quality curriculum, assessment and standards to enable all Western Australian students to become confident, creative learners and active, informed citizens who contribute positively to society.
The Authority replaced the Curriculum Council in May 2012. It is an independent statutory authority that is directly responsible to the Minister for Education. It is administered by a board consisting of seven members appointed for their expertise in education and assessment. ." |
