Oh dear, what a dilution of your Essential Learnings this represents. An ICT skills assessment at years 6 and 10, instead of the proposed ongoing assessment of information literaccy each year for every student? Is this a case of the curriculum being held back by the inertia of some schools? How can this be justified...kids being handicapped by uninformed decisions?
