To achieve change, we are using a co-design approach to policy development and implementation that involves partnership between the SACE Board, teachers, students and other stakeholders to test and pilot innovative SACE policy ideas in real-world settings. 

Through co-design, we are seeking to: 

• focus on student impact 
• involve teachers, students and other stakeholders, including employers, industry, the tertiary sector, and Aboriginal communities, as partners in testing and learning 
• bring together the expertise of the SACE Board, the real-world expertise of teachers, and the experience of students 
• use the diversity of experience to find meaningful ways toward impactful change. 

How to get involved 

Subject renewal 
Subject Renewal Groups (SRGs), each focusing on a specific subject area, have been formed to carry out a comprehensive program to review and enhance SACE subjects.  

Following an expression of interest process, 487 educators have formed 57 SRGs. SRG selection was based on criteria to maximise the diversity of schools and teachers participating. 

We expect there to be some natural attrition of SRG membership as teachers move between schools sites. We will share future opportunities to join SRGs with the school community, as they arise. 

Capabilities and Learner Profile 
Forty-two schools across South Australia and the Northern Territory, from three schooling sectors, are currently engaged in pilot 3. At the conclusion of this pilot, the SACE Board will seek expressions of interest from schools. 

Recognition of Aboriginal Cultural Knowledge and Learning 
Fifteen schools across South Australia and the Northern Territory, from the two schooling sectors, are currently engaged in pilot 3. The SACE will provide support for schools in preparation for implementation in 2025. 

Implementation 

For teachers not participating in co-design or pilot programs, the SACE Board will provide information and access to professional learning that shares the practical experience of teachers engaged in piloting and testing. Closer to actual implementation, the SACE Board will hold implementation workshops. See the Roadmap to Implementation [PDF 496KB] for the stages that precede implementation.
