Join us to explore how to develop culturally responsive learning sequences aligned to the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0.

Participants will deepen understanding of their professional responsibility to teach First Nations Australians perspectives, in line with the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers 1.4 and 2.4 and the Australian Curriculum.
