VET’s Project Based Curriculum treats the investigation of a topic as the basis for learning. Both knowledge and skills are valued, and are treated as seamless and interrelated. The traditional artificial barriers between subjects are broken down. Mathematics, Science, English, Social Studies, Art, Technology, Health & PE are integrated, creating a thematic project. The complete VET Project Based Curriculum is a four year comprehensive curriculum for Year 7 - 10. Each year a student at Middle School West Auckland will complete 8 projects - 2 per term.
