Australian Capital Territory curriculum and worksheets

Australian Capital Territory teaches the national Australian Curriculum (Version 9), the same framework set by ACARA and used across most of the country. There is no separate ACT curriculum to learn: the content descriptions, strands and achievement standards are the national ones.

The ACT Education Directorate (ACT Education) is responsible for schooling in Australian Capital Territory and supports schools in delivering the national curriculum. Because Australian Capital Territory adopts the national curriculum, the worksheets and curriculum pages elsewhere on SproutSheets apply here directly.

The mapping is one to one: Australian Capital Territory uses the national Mathematics content descriptions and their AC9M codes, which is exactly what our worksheets are labelled with. The only naming point to know is the first year of school, called Kindergarten in Australian Capital Territory, which is the national Foundation year. After that it is Year 1 through Year 10, the same as nationally.

Because the codes and year names match, there is nothing to translate for the primary maths content: a national Year 3 content description is a Year 3 content description here too.

Everything on our Australian Curriculum pages applies to Australian Capital Territory without changes. Use the Foundation page for Kindergarten, and the Year 1 to Year 10 pages as named.

Our worksheets are mapped to the national ACARA v9 Mathematics codes, and every maths answer key is computed in code, so the answers are never wrong. Browse by year level or by content code and print what you need.

The ACT calls the first year of school Kindergarten, which is the national Foundation year (the same naming as New South Wales). On SproutSheets, use the Foundation page for Kindergarten.

Unlike neighbouring New South Wales, the ACT teaches the national Australian Curriculum rather than a separate territory framework, so our nationally mapped worksheets apply directly.
