Referendum masterclass

In this new teacher professional learning program, teachers will explore the role, purpose and process of an Australian referendum, while highlighting a range of curriculum-aligned teaching resources.

During this session you will:

• develop an understanding of what a referendum is and how it is included in the Australian Constitution
• examine referendums previously conducted in Australia
• explore the referendum process from the passage of legislation to the vote.
• come away with a collection of curriculum-aligned teaching resources.

This workshop is aligned to the Australian Curriculum and is suitable for primary and secondary teachers.

With more than 30 years’ experience in educating students and teachers about the Australian Parliament, we look forward to introducing you to the exciting opportunities of civics and citizenship education in your classroom.
