Assessment
The content descriptions in the Australian Curriculum: Health and Physical Education (F–10) enable teachers to develop a variety of learning experiences that are relevant, rigorous and meaningful. Some students will require additional support to develop their skills in Health and Physical Education. Organisation of the curriculum in bands provides an additional level of flexibility to support teachers to plan and implement learning programs that are developmentally appropriate for all students.
In any given classroom, students may demonstrate a wide range of strengths, abilities and needs. Teachers should plan programs that recognise this diversity and provide students with multiple means of demonstrating their abilities and what they have learnt through the teaching and learning process. The use of flexible groupings when teaching Health and Physical Education and the provision of ongoing assessment are important elements of teaching and learning programs that accommodate a diversity of learning needs.
