The Government is convinced of the importance of the arts in contributing to the individual
and social development of students in their transition from primary to secondary education

This focus prompts schools to consider transitions between Stages 3 and 4

and the continuity of learning experiences through the achievement of stage outcomes.

The recent release of the Creative Arts K-6 syllabus makes the
mapping between Stages 3 and 4 somewhat more achievable

A recent resource to support the middle years transition in visual arts is Beyond the Frame

Beyond the Frame contains 34 images from regional galleries across NSW

The resource emphasises the dynamic relationships between regional agencies and our schools

Teaching noted on the reverse side of each image provide information about the
artworks along with learning experiences which bridge art studying and artmaking

Beyond the Frame is available from DET sales (ph 9793 3086)
