NESA is continuously releasing new information to support the implementation of initiatives like the Stronger HSC reform, and reforms to HSC assessment, in addition to providing release dates for support materials and other documents.

With new language-specific syllabuses being developed under the Languages K–10 Framework, it's a particularly important time for teachers of languages.

Whilst we do our best to keep you informed, it's a great idea to subscribe to the NESA News email newsletter which is released each week and contains the latest information about reforms, curriculum and support materials. 

Subscribing is easy, just go to the NESA News email newsletter subscription page to stay up-to-date with the most important information regarding curriculum and assessment in NSW.
