The Victorian Curriculum assumes that knowledge and skills are transferable across the curriculum and therefore are not duplicated. For example, skills and knowledge such as asking questions, evaluating evidence and drawing conclusions are defined in Critical and Creative Thinking and these definitions are not duplicated in other learning areas such as History or Health and Physical Education. Instead, it is expected that skills and knowledge defined in the capabilities will be developed, practised, deployed and demonstrated by students in and through their learning in all curriculum areas.
