NSW English resources

Which English resources align with the NSW curriculum?

New South Wales runs its own syllabus through NESA, so NSW editions on EduSellers are written against it rather than being a relabelled national file.

The Australian Curriculum: English is built on three interlocking strands — Language, Literature and Literacy — and Version 9.0 sharpened the phonics and phonemic-awareness content in the early years.

To check a English resource fits, look for the year level and the NSW syllabus outcomes it addresses. Every resource on this page is tagged to the NSW curriculum by the teacher who wrote it — 81 English resources covering 10 year levels between Year 1 and Year 12, 15 of them free.
