Learning and assessment plans
Stage 2 pre-approved learning and assessment plans (LAPs) can be downloaded below. Pre-approved LAPs can be used without amendment, however, you should consider how the selected pre-approved LAP can be adapted to meet the needs and interests of your student cohort. You can also develop your own plan using the school-developed LAP form.
- Amendments to any assessments described in a selected pre-approved LAP should be recorded in the addendum of the LAP.
- Schools are required to implement processes to confirm that the learning and assessment plan being adopted meets current year subject outline specifications.
To learn more about what learning and assessment plans are, the process for developing and approving plans, and other general information, see learning and assessment plans.
