Algester State School delivers quality teaching and learning to ensure our students become successful learners, confident and creative individuals, and active and informed citizens. 

To achieve this, our students develop the following general capabilities that underpin the Australian Curriculum:

•           Literacy

•           Numeracy

•           Digital literacy

•           Critical and creative thinking

•           Personal and social capability

•           Ethical understanding

•           Intercultural understanding 

 

Our curriculum offerings are informed by the Australian Curriculum. The development of our three levels of curriculum planning are informed by the Department of Education's P-12 Curriculum, Assessment Framework.

 

The eight Learning Areas provided at Algester State School are:

•           English

•           Mathematics

•           Science

•           Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS)

•           The Arts

•           Technologies

•           Health and Physical Education (HPE)

•           Languages (Chinese)

In each of the eight learning areas of the Australian Curriculum, there are three cross-curriculum priorities embedded. 

 

These are:

•           Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures

•           Asia and Australia's Engagement with Asia

•           Sustainability 

 

Units of work are collaboratively developed to engage students through learning experiences that stimulate critical and creative thinking and develop their personal and social capabilities. Digital literacy skills are explicitly taught and embedded in the everyday learning of students to assist them in utilizing and creating content and to encourage collaboration with others, including peers, teachers.

 

At the beginning of each semester, curriculum overviews, that outline the units of work for each year level are made available on the Algester State School website.​
