The standards elaborations (SEs) are a resource developed to assist teachers to use the Australian Curriculum achievement standards to make consistent, comparable and defensible A to E judgments about the evidence of achievement in a folio of student work.
In Queensland, the Australian Curriculum achievement standard represents the C standard — a sound level of knowledge and understanding of the content, and application of skills. The standards elaborations have been refined to reflect this.
