Welcome

Hi, my name is Stephen Bevan and I am Principal at Tuart Hill Primary School in Perth, Western Australia. Research shows that open and clear communication between home and school is important which is why I have created this blog. As Principal of Tuart Hill Primary School I value your opinions and encourage your comments. Feel free to comment on any of the posts.

I will endeavour to provide you with regular and informative posts about our school and its activities. I ask that your comments be constructive and positive with any concerns or complaints directed to me personally at school.

Tuart Hill Primary School prides itself on the positive, open and friendly culture that has been established. Our vision is to raise the literacy level of all students through the provision of quality teaching and learning opportunities.

The Australian Curriculum

The Australian Curriculum sets out what all young Australian's are to be taught, and the expected quality of learning as they progress through schooling. Currently, each state has its own curriculum although this will change over the next few years with the progressive implementation of the Australian Curriculum.

The Australian Curriculum is an online curriculum that provides flexibility in how the curriculum can be accessed and organised.

The Australian Curriculum is being developed progressively by the Australian, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA). To view the Australian Curriculum go to: http://www.australiancurriculum.edu.au

  1. Currently at Tuart Hill, staff are spending time getting to know the online curriculum that is available (English, Maths, Science, History). Some after school familiarisation sessions have been held to explore how the Australian Curriculum is different to WA's Curriculum Framework.
