The new science curriculum rolls out in 2027. We're planning Year 9 and 10 science resources with three science associations, SCENZ, NZASE and NZIP, for teachers to use with it.

The unit and lesson plans are drafted with AI and checked by expert teachers. They will be released in stages, starting in December 2026.

A preview of the Year 9 and 10 resources is live. It shows early draft unit plans, so expect it to change.
