Chace Curriculum Principles and Intention

The curriculum at Chace should:

• promote achievement leading to successful outcomes, ensuring students are well qualified for progression and empowered for the next steps in their education
• include, teach and promote high standards of literacy and reading, numeracy and use of technology in communication
• be challenging and promote deep thinking, independence and creativity
• be engaging and accessible for all as part of an inclusive and equitable education
• promote resilience to develop character
• build on students’ prior knowledge and understanding leading to mastery
• develop skills for life to increase self-esteem, self-confidence, self-awareness and promote well-being.

This is important because:

• students need to be equipped with employability skills and attributes for a sustainable future
• students need academic and emotional resilience in the real world
• students will play a fundamental role in society as active citizens locally, nationally and globally.
