Special arrangements applying to the NSW Curriculum Reform

As part of the NSW Curriculum Reform process, NESA grants a limited non-exclusive licence to:

teachers employed in NSW government schools and registered non-government schools
parents of children registered for home schooling

to use, modify and adapt the NSW syllabuses for non-commercial educational use only. The adaptation must not have the effect of bringing NESA into disrepute.

Note: The above arrangements do not apply to private/home tutoring companies, professional learning service providers, publishers, and other organisations.
