The College's curriculum includes not only
what is learnt, but also how it is taught
and what experiences occur to enable true
learning to take place. The College places
great emphasis on the learning process, on
the various ways individual students learn,
and on the quality and style of teaching
which will best assist that process.
As a Kindergarten to Year 12 school, the
College is ideally placed to recognise the learning
continuum across all of those years. The curriculum is based
on the NSW Board of Studies' six learning Stages: Early
Stage 1 [Kindergarten] through to Stage 6 [Years 11-12].
These six Stages are grouped in a manner which best suits
the needs of students, not in the traditional Primary and
Secondary divisions, but in a three phase model of Junior,
Middle and Senior components of the College.
At each Stage there are Key Learning Areas [KLAs]
to be covered by all students. These KLAs
provide the common curriculum for all students across the
State and their goals are expressed as outcomes which
students work towards attaining.
