Aims

The Australian Curriculum: Framework for Classical Languages aims to develop the knowledge, understanding and skills to ensure students:

engage with the language, history and culture of the Classical world through interaction with texts
understand language, culture and learning and their relationship, through the medium of ancient texts and artefacts, and thereby develop intercultural understanding
understand how their own experiences of learning a Classical language extend their ways of viewing, engaging in and interpreting the contemporary world.

These three aims are interrelated and provide the basis for the two organising strands: Engaging with texts and Understanding.
