Consultation on NSW Languages draft K-10 framework

The NSW Languages K-10 Draft Framework has been released by BOSTES this week. Feedback is sought on the proposed framework, which will, in turn, be used to develop the draft K-10 syllabuses for the following languages: Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Modern Greek, Russian, Spanish, Turkish and Vietnamese.
The Department of Education is conducting state-wide consultation for DoE teachers on this K-10 Framework. This is your opportunity to give feedback to ensure that the new K-10 Languages Framework is a suitable basis for individual Languages syllabuses to be developed.  

This is what you need to do to have your say on the K-10 Languages Framework :
