The Curriculum Review was established in January 2014 regarding the development and implementation of the Australian curriculum, its robustness and balance and curriculum development processes. It is needed to ensure that the Australian curriculum is on track, meets Australia's long-term education needs and assesses criticisms that occurred prior to this review. The review is a long-time coalition election promise.

The government is happy with making the preliminary report public. It was advice from March on the progress of the review to date. It was released online earlier this afternoon and it is available on the curriculum page of the Students First website. The review is continuing to work so as to complete its report as promised by the end of July.
