The Curriculum Journal

Unlike Canada and South Africa, Australia has not completed a national Truth-telling of First Nations histories. As a consequence, the curriculum is at risk of excluding Truth-telling, leading to indoctrination of past injustices as part of school learning. This research critically examines the use of Truth-telling language in the Australian Curriculum.
