Curriculum access and time allocations
The Australian Curriculum and Religion Curriculum guide the time allocations for learning areas. The allocation of time is based on the content of the curriculum and is flexible to suit the local context of schools. Schools may allocate more time to learning areas that are a priority. At Star of the Sea Primary School, specialist teachers in the areas of the Arts, LOTE (French) and HPE provide planning and preparation time, which influences school decisions on time allocations.
Classroom and specialist teacher timetables are reflective of the school context and priority areas.
