Curriculum

The curriculum offered by all systemic schools in the Diocese of Broken Bay is based on Board of Studies syllabuses. These syllabuses clearly identify the Outcomes (the targets of each course) which provide detail of what students will be expected to know, understand and do at the end of a specific stage of learning. Teachers respond to syllabuses by designing teaching programs that take account of resources, expertise, school priorities and most importantly, student learning needs. On-going assessment for learning enables teachers to make professional judgments about student achievement and to adjust the teaching program to support each student's learning. Regular and specific feedback is provided for both students and parents to further support effective learning.

The Catholic Schools Office works collaboratively with schools to ensure a high standard of curriculum delivery. This support may focus on areas such as programming, assessment, reporting or innovative approaches such as curriculum integration. At all times, excellence in terms of student learning is the key concern of high quality curriculum development and implementation.
