Curriculum Advisory Committees
The Curriculum Advisory Committees (CACs) provide the School Curriculum and Standards Authority (the Authority) with expert advice from practising teachers representing all education systems/sector, representatives from education systems/sector offices and professional associations and, as appropriate, representatives from universities, the training sector, industry and/or the community.
The Authority’s CACs cover each phase of learning:
- Late Adolescence and Early Adulthood (Years 11 and 12): these committees will provide advice on senior school courses and pathways
- Early and Middle Adolescence (Years 7–10): eight committees will provide advice on the following eight learning areas – English, Health and Physical Education, Humanities and Social Sciences, Languages, Mathematics, Science, Technologies and The Arts
- Middle to Late Childhood (Years 3–6): one committee will provide advice on the Western Australian Curriculum (Years 3–6)
- Early Childhood (Kindergarten–Year 2): one committee will provide advice on the Western Australian Curriculum (Kindergarten–Year 2), including the Kindergarten Curriculum Guidelines and the Early Years Learning Framework.
Each committee will have 10 to 12 members selected by the Authority through a self-nomination process involving an application. Members will be appointed for a three-year term and may be appointed for more than one term.
Early Childhood: Years K–2
Nominations are currently being sought for Curriculum Advisory Committees through the Kto6 Circular published in February.
