The ILW Learning K-12 team is seeking passionate and experienced leaders/teachers to contribute their knowledge and expertise toward supporting the implementation of the new K-6 Creative Arts and HSIE syllabuses in 2027.
In 2026, dedicated working parties will be established for each learning area. These working parties will play a key role in developing curriculum support materials to assist all primary schools across the Diocese in implementing the new CHPS syllabuses.
Key details:
- Each working party will meet two- three times per term throughout 2026.
- Release funding will be provided to enable participation during school hours.
- An ongoing commitment is required for the full 2026 school year.
Participation in each working party provides the opportunity to:
- Engage in professional learning on the reformed K-6 CHPS syllabuses, including exploring interconnections between KLAs and applying the backward design model for planning and programming.
- Collaboratively develop support materials to benefit leaders and teachers across our system of schools.
- Work alongside knowledgeable others and build professional networks with colleagues from across the Diocese.
If you are interested in joining this initiative, please register your interest by completing this form by 20 October 2025. Nominees must speak with their principal prior to registering their interest.
