Year 6 English Curriculum Package

Prepare students for the transition to secondary English with this comprehensive Year 6 English Curriculum Package, professionally developed to align with the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0. Designed for Australian teachers, homeschool families and educational organisations, this complete annual curriculum provides a structured 40-week scope and sequence that simplifies planning while ensuring full curriculum coverage.

Organised across four school terms, the curriculum systematically develops students' knowledge and skills across the Language, Literature and Literacy strands, preparing them for the analytical, communication and literacy demands of secondary education. Students refine their reading comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, spelling and writing skills while analysing increasingly complex literary and informative texts, evaluating authors' language choices, and creating imaginative, informative and persuasive texts for a variety of audiences and purposes. Throughout the year, students strengthen their ability to think critically, communicate effectively, collaborate confidently and apply sophisticated literacy skills across a wide range of authentic learning experiences.
