Curriculum

At Westall - we aim to ensure that learning is planned, purposeful and follows a clearly organised sequence, so all students can fully develop their potential.

 

Westall Primary School is excited to announce that after much development in 2021 - the school has re-developed it curriculum program in Literacy (Reading and writing) and Numeracy.

 

Our re-developed program is highly organised and based on the Victorian Curriculum. The program has been developed to:

  • ensure that student learning is consistent across the school

  • caters for individual needs

  • clearly identifies exactly what standards students are expected to meet - which form the basis of student learning goals

  • identifies key skills - that immediately determine which students that are in need of further support 

  • ensure units of work (lesson sequences) are all linked and consistent across the school.

  • be a form of consistent, authentic assessment of student level of achievement across the school

  • ensure topics are aligned as much as possible across all year levels - so different work can be accessed for a broad range of student needs
