Australian Curriculum Sample Clauses

Australian Curriculum. The Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) has developed the Australian Curriculum with input from leading educators in each state. This has involved participation and feedback from each schooling sector in Queensland, coordinated by the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority (QCAA). The Queensland Government has introduced new senior assessment and tertiary entrance arrangements, which has commenced for students entering Year 11 in 2019. A new tertiary entrance system will move from the current Overall Position (OP) tertiary ranks based on results in five senior Authority subjects to a more inclusive rank which may also include a Vocational Education and Training (VET) qualification or Subject Area Syllabus (SAS) subject. The new rank will take the form of an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR), as used in other Australian states and territories. Students completing Year 12 in 2019 will be the last group of senior students to receive an OP tertiary entrance rank. From 2020, eligible students completing Year 12 will receive an ATAR. While the OP ranks students in 25 bands of achievement (with OP1 as the highest rank), an ATAR ranks students from 99.95 in steps of 0.05. This provides a much ‘finer-grained’ rank, which can help to differentiate students who seek entry to high-demand tertiary courses. The introduction of a common external assessment in each senior subject will also help to ensure subject results are comparable across teachers and schools. While this will commonly involve a written examination, other forms of external assessment may also be used depending on the requirements of a given subject. Unless there are strong educational reasons to the contrary, external assessment will contribute 25% of the overall subject result in most subjects. In mathematics and science subjects, it will contribute 50% of the overall subject result. External assessment will contribute more in mathematics and science subjects because the type of skills and knowledge found in these subjects are more readily assessed through common external assessment. QTAC will generate student ATARs through a statistical process known as ‘inter-subject scaling’. Under this process, patterns of student results across different subjects are mathematically compared and adjusted to enable students with different combinations of results to be compared in a single rank order. A similar process is used to support ATAR calculations in most other Au...
