Curriculum
|
Most people learn about history at school or university. The History Council of NSW supports a strong history curriculum in schools. We also maintain a watching brief on history at the tertiary level. The commitment of universities to the teaching of history is important in developing in depth knowledge of history, as well as new and innovative research.

Detailed information about the National History Curriculum can be found at the History Teacher's Association of NSW. An Executive Summary of the Draft National History Curriculum can be found in the right hand column.
