- Subscribe by Email Consultation on the Science and Technology K-6 Syllabus
The Science and Technology K–6 Syllabus is being reviewed using the Board's syllabus development process.
Teachers have the opportunity to participate in the review by attending consultation meetings during Terms 2 and 3. The consultation meetings will gather teachers' comments on the strengths and weaknesses of the current syllabus, with a view to seeking suggestions for improvements.
Please see the schedule below for the date and venue of your nearest consultation meeting.
Evaluation surveys will also be sent to a sample of schools in Term 2 to gather individual teachers' views on the current syllabus. Completed surveys are due to the Board of Studies by 29 June 2007.
An evaluation report taking into account the feedback from the meetings and survey, and including recommendations and broad directions for revision of the syllabus, will be prepared for the Board of Studies.
For more information on the Science and Technology K–6 Syllabus review contact Nicholas Perkins, Senior Curriculum Officer, Primary Education on (02) 9367 8180 or nicholas.perkins@bos.nsw.edu.au.
