In NSW primary schools, the study of a language is optional. In NSW high schools, languages is a key learning area.
Language study allows students to develop communication skills, learn about languages as systems and explore the relationship between language and culture. Students engage with the linguistic and cultural diversity of societies and reflect on their understanding of social interactions.
The study of a language is compulsory for 100 hours in one continuous school year from Year 7 to Year 10, but preferably in Years 7 or 8.
In Years 11 and 12, NSW schools offer a wide variety of languages, catering for beginning students to background speakers.

I would like to acknowledge that we meet on the homelands of the Kwiambal people who are the traditional custodians of this land. I pay respect to elders past, present and emerging of the Kamilaroi nation and extend that respect to other Aboriginal people here today.
