The purpose of the support materials is to provide a starting point for teachers to develop their own programs within the framework of Stage 1 and 2 subjects. They are a sample range of current materials which teachers can adapt to suit the specific needs of the students within their school context.

The intention is for these initial materials to provide an impetus for wider contributions from members of the educational community. In this way, over time, these support materials will facilitate an exchange of ideas within the educational community.

It is important to note that the legislative requirements of each subject are contained in the curriculum statements; a Word and .pdf version of these are provided on this website. Curriculum and assessment decisions should be based on the curriculum statements and not on these support materials.

These materials have been developed by South Australian educators (e.g. teachers, Subject Advisory Committee members) across a range of sites. Their purpose is to support teachers in their planning, programming and assessment. They provide samples and models to consider when developing teaching and learning strategies within the school setting, and should not be interpreted as directives for implementation.
