Across Pre-primary to Year 10, achievement standards indicate the quality of learning that students should typically demonstrate by a particular point in their schooling. Achievement standards comprise a written description and student work samples.

The sequence of achievement standards across Pre-primary to Year 10 describes progress in the learning area. This sequence provides teachers with a framework of growth and development in the learning area.
Student work samples play a key role in communicating expectations described in the achievement standards. Each work sample includes the relevant assessment task, the student's response, and annotations identifying the quality of learning evident in the student's response in relation to relevant parts of the achievement standard.
