Curriculum source, checked 29 September 2026
The ACARA Australian Curriculum Version 9.0 downloads supplied the official workbook held at products/curriculum-studio/research/sources/acara-australian-curriculum-v9-download-2026-09-29.xlsx. Its SHA-256 is db446882d2c00cf7c085a03e250e2442fda6c44011fc114680c46c1dc7a822c3. Each proposed English code in the exact crosswalk has attributes.level == Year 5, a source row and wording checked against that pinned import by verify_pack.py. ACARA attribution and copyright terms apply to curriculum descriptions; ACARA has not endorsed, sponsored or approved SubjectNest.
QCAA's P–10 English Version 9 page and Queensland planning page were checked for the state implementation route. This pack has not been mapped to a Queensland school unit, assessment plan, timetable, current school selection of texts, or other jurisdiction's syllabus. A curriculum leader must do that before local use.

No image, recording, translation, First Nations language/cultural example, third-party worksheet, child answer or external logo was downloaded into the pack. If a school adds one, the school must record authority, attribution, permissions and accessible equivalent before wider distribution.
Human work still needed
An experienced Year 5 English teacher needs to run the exact lessons and check whether source navigation, figurative-language discussion, panel rearrangement, writing and feedback fit the local class. A learner/access specialist should test SVG/PDF and plain-text/tactile routes with actual tools; the PDFs have selectable text but are not claimed tagged. A curriculum leader needs to verify local Year 5 requirements, assessment conditions and a year-long range of literary authors/texts. Privacy approval is needed before any real learner work is displayed or published. Translations require qualified language review and an assessment-equivalence check; none is supplied here.
The desk review is an author simulation, not a classroom trial or learner outcome. Original SubjectNest ledger text © 2026 NeuroForgeIO Pty Ltd, CC BY 4.0. Credit, link and indicate changes.
