The curriculum should reflect values in our society that promote personal development, equality of opportunity, economic wellbeing, a healthy and just democracy, and a sustainable future.

These values should relate to:

  • ourselves, as individuals capable of spiritual, moral, social, intellectual and physical growth and development

  • our relationships, as fundamental to the development and fulfilment of happy and healthy lives, and to the good of the community

  • our society, which is shaped by the contributions of a diverse range of people, cultures and heritages

  • our environment, as the basis of life and a source of wonder and inspiration that needs to be protected.
