Year 10 · Plan

Your Future, Your Plan

From awareness to a documented, personal industry pathway

The capstone year. Students analyse WA's economy with genuine sophistication, engage with the energy transition in real depth, and leave with a documented personal pathway into WA's future resources sector. Not an interest. A plan — with steps, timelines and qualifications mapped.

The Year 10 units

Year 10 is the payoff. Across four capstone units, students model WA's economy in the year they turn thirty, examine the energy transition as it actually unfolds, and convert six years of growing awareness into a documented personal pathway — subjects, training route, first concrete step — which they then pitch to a real industry panel. It matters because a program that ends in vague inspiration has failed; this one ends with every student holding a plan they can act on the day they leave school.

Every unit arrives classroom-ready — full lesson sequences, slides, student workbooks and assessment rubrics, aligned to the revised Western Australian Curriculum, mandated from 2026.

Unit 01

WA in 2040

"What will WA's economy look like when you're 30 — and what skills will it require?"

Students model WA's economy at the age they turn 30: growth indicators, living standards, and where resources sit in the state's future mix.

Students produceA “WA 2040” economic brief.

Unit 02

The Transition Economy

"How is WA navigating the shift from fossil fuels to renewables — and what does that mean for careers?"

The energy transition treated as geography and management: what changes, how it is managed, and which careers appear — and disappear — along the way.

Students produceAn environmental-change management analysis of one real transition project.
Industry connectionData and context from a partner transition or renewables project.
HASS Geography · Environmental change and management
Unit 03

Build Your Blueprint

"What is your specific, personal pathway into WA's future economy — and what is step one?"

Every student leaves with a documented plan: subject selections, training route, first credential, first application — steps and dates, not vague intentions.

Students produceTheir personal pathway blueprint — the program's flagship artefact.
Industry connectionPartner guidance on real entry pathways, reviewed for neutrality.

Unit 04

Make the Pitch

"Can you articulate your vision for WA's resource future to a real industry panel?"

The capstone. Students present their blueprint or industry vision to a real panel and answer real questions — communication under pressure, formally assessed.

Students produceA delivered pitch and the panel's written feedback.
Industry connectionPartner executives sit on the assessment panel — the program's signature moment.
