Official Notice - Reviewed Stage 6 Creative Arts Life Skills Syllabus

BOS 20/09

The reviewed Stage 6 Creative Arts Life Skills Syllabus (2009) is now available on the Board’s website.

A review of the Stage 6 Creative Arts Life Skills Syllabus (1999, amended 2007) was undertaken by the Board to provide:

  • additional curriculum options in the Creative Arts Learning Area
  • a continuum of learning from the Life Skills outcomes and content in the Years 7–10 syllabuses.

The reviewed syllabus will replace the Stage 6 Creative Arts Life Skills Syllabus (1999, amended 2007) and will be implemented in 2010 for students undertaking a preliminary course or courses from the syllabus. Teachers will continue to use the existing syllabus for students studying the HSC Stage 6 Creative Arts Life Skills course in 2010.

The following table summarises key changes resulting from the review of the Stage 6 Creative Arts Life Skills Syllabus.
