The curriculum should reflect values in our society that promote personal development, equality of opportunity, economic well-being, a healthy and just democracy, and a sustainable future.

These values should relate to:

• Ourselves as individuals capable of spiritual, moral, social, intellectual and physical growth and development.
• Our relationships, as fundamental to the development and fulfilment of happy and healthy lives, and to the good of the community.
• Our society, which is shaped by the contributions of a diverse range of people, cultures and heritages.
• Our environment, as the basis of life and a source of wonder and inspiration needs to be protected.
