Curriculum Directions

Halving the gap between Indigenous students scores on Benchmark tests and state means is a systemic priority. Western Cape College is dedicated to improving the outcomes of all its students on Benchmark tests. A Benchmark Data Retrospective 2001-2006  was produced, this highlighted a number of issues, particularly around literacy and numeracy performance.

The Western Cape College Curriculum Team is in the process of developing a framework to guide teaching practice aligned with the Bound for Success Scope and Sequence Document. With a focus on literacy and numeracy the user friendly document will align Western Cape College with systemic directions.

Western Cape College is prepared for the implementation of the Queensland Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Framework.  The essential learnings are being mapped back to the College's New Basics Curriculum Framework. This will form an important part of the Western Cape College Curriculum Strategy in development.
