Tune in to Lit Happens, where we, two dedicated HSC English educators, guide teachers through the new English Studies Stage 6 syllabus, implemented from 2026 and assessed in 2027. This episode is essential for understanding the updated curriculum’s focus on literacy, real-world applications, and Aboriginal voices, along with text selections, assessments, and programming strategies to prepare students for success. The shift to a flexible, inclusive framework makes this a must-listen for educators adapting their programmes and students exploring this pathway. We continue with our LIT OR QUIT segment in its seventeenth week, asking: "Should all English Studies students be required to sit the exam? Lit or Quit?" Tailored for teachers fostering innovative teaching, this episode equips you with practical tools to navigate the new syllabus.
