This article provides insight into the development of Australia’s educational standards, the resultant alignment between curriculum, assessment and teaching standards and the move to online tailored testing. Background to the development and nature of the standards is provided as well as areas being considered for further reform. The article acknowledges the challenges in reaching settlement in relation to the standards-setting reforms in a Federation such as Australia. It also outlines the significant  benefits now being realised as a result of the collaborative effort to achieve a national curriculum, a national assessment program and national teaching standards.
