Planning, programming and assessing commerce

Resources to help you plan, program and assess commerce in Years 7–10.

The Commerce Years 7–10 syllabus (2019) provides students with the knowledge, understanding, skills and values that form the foundation on which young people make sound decisions about consumer, financial, economic, business, legal, political and employment issues. Through the study of commerce students develop consumer and financial literacy which enables them to participate in the financial system in an informed way.
