In 2018, NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) released the Spanish K-10 Syllabus.

The support on this page includes sample:

• scope and sequences
• unit starters (units of work)
• assessment tasks, with marking guidelines.

Modify the documents to suit your context, including the needs of your students.

For advice on how to develop your own programming documents, visit our programming and assessment page.

The Spanish K-10 syllabus was developed using the Languages K-10 Framework. As all K-10 language syllabuses (2017 and later) are underpinned by this framework, teachers should view resources across all languages to access a broader range of sample scope and sequences, unit starters and assessment tasks.
