The sample scope and sequence documents for Stage 2 and Stage 3 incorporate advice from NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) and include the following elements:

• the scope of learning in relation to the syllabus outcomes to be addressed
• the sequence of learning in relation to the syllabus outcomes to be addressed
• duration of the learning
• syllabus outcomes addressed (these are commonly represented by outcome codes)
• relevant information for particular learning areas or particular school requirements.

Each document is a sample that schools may adapt to meet the needs of their students and local context.
