We are working with First Nations experts to co-create the lessons relating to First Nations people and issues. For triggering content, we will be providing a resource at the beginning of the textbook to alert students to the potentially sensitive nature of some content, with a list of resources for support if needed.

‍

We will be providing an 'Introduction to Legal Studies' lesson at the beginning of the Unit 3&4 textbook resource, to cover concepts that aren't explicitly taught in the Year 12 course. It will also address some key skills relevant to Legal Studies.

We've included 'Linking to previous learning' questions in each lesson to develop students' capacity to synthesise information across the Study Design.

In addition to providing key legal terms, exemplar responses model best use of legal terminology and phrasing before allowing students to develop their own responses independently.

‍

We have included whole lessons on 2 examples of inquiries and commissions. These will be from 2023 where possible, and we'll update them in a few years' time as needed.

We will also be addressing the dot point on potential future constitutional reform by providing online resources for this, with comprehensive coverage of the First Nations Voice to Parliament referendum.
