In English, we are guided by the Victorian Curriculum with the aims and intentions of the Horizons of Hope.
It is intended that the children develop their knowledge, understanding and skills across the strands of Language, Literature and Literacy. It aims at ensuring the three modes of listening and speaking, reading and viewing and writing are all connected. Teachers regularly gather and use data about the explicit needs of children to inform learning and teaching. When planning, many Literacy links are made across the curriculum, such as Faith Life Inquiry, the Capabilities and The Arts.
