The “Chinese as an Additional Language” (CAL) Curriculum Project is a collective effort by representatives from ICN schools to fill the curriculum gap experienced by all ICN schools.

Currently, the Australian Curriculum - Chinese provides curricula suitable for second language learners, background learners and first language learners learning in mainstream school contexts. However, all curricula fail to address the developmental needs and progress of learners who are afforded more time-on-task (e.g. CLIL programs) or immersion opportunities (e.g. bilingual schools).

The CAL is:

• a collective attempt to capture the expectations and experiences of frontline bilingual practitioners nationwide

• a map of developmental progress in stages（甲、乙、丙、丁、戊）for students in a bilingual context

• a common currency via which ICN schools can discuss teaching and learning

• a reference document for planning, differentiation and reporting

The CAL Project Team consists of Stanley Wang, Fangni Zhou, Constance Chen, Yin Zhang, Grace Wen, Yvonne Lu, Pei Tseng and Erik Ma.

CAL Version 2.2 has been published in April, 2025 and is available for access via the ICN Hub.

"中文作为第二语言"（CAL）课纲项目是由ICN学校代表共同努力的成果，旨在填补所有ICN学校都面临的课纲问题。

现今澳大利亚课纲中的中文科目提供适合在主流学校环境中学习的第二语言学习者、华裔背景语言学习者和第一语言学习者的课纲。然而，所有这些课纲都未能满足那些有更多学习时间（如CLIL项目）或沉浸式学习机会（如双语学校）的学习者的发展需求和进展。

CAL是一个：

• 整合全国一线双语教师实践以及课纲期待的尝试

• 为双语环境中的学生提供分阶段（甲、乙、丙、丁、戊）发展进程的指南

• 为ICN学校讨论教学的共同语言

• 用于规划、差异化教学和撰写报告的参考文件

CAL项目团队由 Stanley Wang、Fangni Zhou、Constance Chen、Yin Zhang、Grace Wen、Yvonne Lu、Pei Tseng 和 Erik Ma组成。

CAL2.2版已于2025年4月发布，请上 ICN Hub 查看。
