Year 10 EIF

Subject Overview

Exploring Identities and Futures (EIF) supports students to explore their aspirations. They are given the space and opportunity to extend their thinking beyond what they want to do, to also consider who they want to be in the future.  

The subject supports students to learn more about themselves, their place in the world, and enables them to explore and deepen their sense of belonging, identity, and connections to the world around them.  

EIF prepares students for their SACE journey and the knowledge, skills, and capabilities required to be thriving learners. As an introduction to the SACE, students will be empowered to take ownership of where their pathway leads, exploring interests, work, travel and/or further learning.

Areas of learning are: 

• Identifying and exploring personal interests  
• Developing factors that contribute to the formation of identity  
• Developing the capacity for self-reflection  
• Identifying and developing strengths or talents  
• Exploring future goals and fulfilling aspirations  
• Understanding the value of individual uniqueness  
• Identifying individual indicators of physical, emotional, and mental health and well-being  
• Seeking and responding to advice and guidance in the learning environment  
• Recounting and/or demonstrating learning to an audience

• AT1: Exploring me and who I want to be.
