The value of a National Curriculum will be explored in a public arena in the first Edversations Professional Forum to be hosted by Charles Sturt University (CSU) and Wagga Wagga City Council in 2010. In March, the Australian Curriculum Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) released for public comment a draft National Curriculum for students from Kindergarten to Year 10 in English, maths, science and history. “This public forum is a great opportunity for members of the local community to draw on a diverse range of expertise on the National Curriculum and how it could shape the future of education in Australia,” said Head of the School of Education at CSU in Wagga Wagga, Associate Professor Roslin Brennan Kemmis.
