Thanks to Peta Credlin and Colleen Hardin (Credlin 14 April) for revealing how overflowing with syncopations and flaws is the Australian Mathematics Curriculum for all year levels from reception to year 10.

In the picture is the mass of documetation that is the Australian maths curriculum for years to year 10.

On the right is the Singapore education systems maths curriculum of 84 pages.

Singaporean students are number one in maths with with OECD measurement. Australian students are falling further and further behind on the world stage.

Australian Maths Curriculum on the left. Singapore’s on the right.
The more voluminous the documentation the worse the academic outcome and the more trite the learning consequences.

And this is just for Maths.

The mind boggles and how glad I am not to be encumbered with such garbage.
