What Year 10 English students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 10 English standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They select, vary and experiment with language features including rhetorical and literary devices, and experiment with multimodal features and features of voice.
- They read, view and comprehend a range of texts created to inform, influence and engage audiences.
- They select and experiment with text structures to organise, develop and link ideas and representations.
- They create written and multimodal texts, including literary texts, for a range of purposes and audiences, expressing ideas and representations, making connections and providing substantiation.
- They select and experiment with text structures to organise and develop ideas.
- They select, vary and experiment with language features including literary devices, and experiment with multimodal features.
