The Australian Curriculum sets consistent national standards to improve learning outcomes for all young Australians. It sets out, through content descriptions and achievement standards, what students should be taught and achieve, as they progress through school. It is the base for future learning, growth and active participation in the Australian community.  Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority

The FutureSchool system currently offers both the Australian Curriculum and the various state curricula. This will remain in place until the full rollout and integration has been completed.  The purpose of this to allow complete flexibility of schemes of work during this transition phase.

Whatever level your family, you can rest assured that FutureSchool will complement and work hand-in-hand with their current schoolwork.

For those schools that offer the International Baccalaureate or Cambridge International Examinations curricula, these are also available within FutureSchool as part of its standard curriculum library.
