"The NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) have been developed with respect to some overarching views about education. These include the NESA K–10 Curriculum Framework and Statement of Equity Principles and the Melbourne Declaration on Educational Goals for Young Australians (December 2008).

The Australian Curriculum achievement standards underpin the syllabus outcomes and the stage statements for Early Stage 1 to Stage 5." -- (Introduction)
