In the first video, our Curriculum specialist, Technologies and the curriculum writers take you through the key changes to the Digital Technologies curriculum. Primary teachers will notice a new Foundation level with essential content for the first year of schooling and what is needed to move through to the next band of Year 1 and 2. Our presenters also explain how the revised content descriptions have reduced duplications and made it much clearer for teachers about what needs to be taught.
