JC 1 homeschool curriculum
A-level and other post-secondary examinations are run by SEAB with MOE. The topics here are foundational preparation only — check syllabuses and private candidate rules with SEAB.
These JC 1 topics help learners consolidate the algebra and reasoning needed for senior mathematics. They work with functions and their graphs, take a first step into calculus through rates of change, and meet exponential and logarithmic functions, the unit circle, counting techniques and the mathematics of sequences and finance. Families should check the specific requirements of their state or territory's senior courses.
These JC 1 topics build the core skills that underpin senior English courses across Australia: reading closely, writing sustained analytical responses, comparing texts and crafting persuasive arguments. They are designed as foundational practice that a learner can apply to whichever prescribed texts and course their state or territory pathway requires.
JC 1 science is usually studied as separate subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Earth and Environmental Science. These foundational topics build the core ideas and skills that senior courses rely on: how cells control what enters and leaves them, how atoms bond, how chemists count particles with the mole, how to describe motion with equations, and how Earth's spheres interact. Students practise quantitative reasoning, careful measurement and evaluation of data.
