The Australian Curriculum is changing in 2016

Since the review of the Australian Curriculum, there has been some concern among teachers regarding yet another syllabus to program for in the near future and whether there would be an increased focus on Australia's Anglo-Christian heritage (yes, this does appear to be a political football).

There are some changes in Australia that Christopher Pyne has announced which involves a streamlining of HSIE subjects in primary schools. Specifics for NSW have not yete been released, but even though it has been signed off by all states, experience would indicate that this will take some time before it hits the classroom in NSW.

For a few more details, see the article: http://au.educationhq.com/news/12587/streamlined-curriculum-ready-in-2016/
