Classroom

Curriculum Links

The Commission has also developed detailed documents which link each of our human rights education modules with curriculum frameworks from Education Department's across each Australian State and Territory. Links have been established in a range of key learning areas including Studies of Society and Environment (especially Aboriginal Studies and Australian Studies), English, Civics and Citizenship/Discovering Democracy, Geography, History, and Drama.

These Curriculum Links documents have been extremely well received, and provide teachers with language to describe outcomes linked to the Commission's human rights education resources in their programming.
