The Education Goals for Young Australians, as set out in the Alice Springs (Mparntwe) Education Declaration (December 2019), and a renewed Australian Curriculum provide opportunities for the profession to re-interrogate practice.

The conference will focus on three strands:
 

Strand 1: How could we reimagine curriculum, assessment and pedagogy?

Strand 2: How do excellence and equity work together in schools?

Strand 3: How do we ensure all young Australians become confident and creative individuals,
                successful lifelong learners, and active and informed members of the community?

The conference aims to provide opportunities for educators to:
 

• Understand changes in national initiatives and reforms such as the national learning
  progressions and online formative assessment project and the review of the
  Australian Curriculum.

• Consider and reflect on the impact these reforms will have for schools, teachers and leaders of curriculum

• Understand the breadth of curriculum and assessment scholarship that can inform
  teaching practice by examining evidence informed theory and practice.

• Connect curriculum theories, the national education goals, policy and ideas to
  classroom practice.

• Plan for action in their context.

All educators: academics, teachers, curriculum leaders, school leaders, teacher
educators, pre-service teachers and curriculum developers.
