Victorian Curriculum 2.0: your Stile library is aligned for 2026
The Stile library is aligned with the Victorian Curriculum 2.0.
The Stile library is now aligned with the Victorian Curriculum 2.0. No need to spend hours rewriting lessons. Just copy the updated units from the Stile library, and you’re ready to go.
Where you’ll see it
When you open the Stile library, you’ll notice Victorian Curriculum (New for 2026) in the curriculum drop-down menu.
This is now the default for Victorian schools and is where you’ll find the most up-to-date content for the new curriculum. Make sure you copy the updated units into your subjects so you’re teaching with our exciting new lessons.
What’s new in Stile for VIC 2.0
Stile units have been updated to address every aspect of the Science learning area in the Victorian Curriculum 2.0

Energy
A new lesson in Energy helps students make sense of how electricity is generated as alternating current or direct current. A clear comparison between hydroelectric and solar electricity helps students to explore different ways of producing electricity.
Energy at home
Students explore energy use through the context of building design. This authentic connection helps students tie their learning to real homes, real bills, and the very real question students often ask: “Why don’t we build houses that actually stay cool?”
Forces
Simple machines have had a thoughtful refresh, with a new infographic that brings all six simple machines together in one place. An added efficiency challenge provides the option to extend students by delving deeper into this concept.
The Universe
A two-part Socratic seminar on the race to Mars gets students thinking and talking about space exploration. You’ll be amazed by the thoughtful discussion.
First Nations perspectives and teaching support
First Nations histories and cultures have been integrated throughout these new updates. We know this is an area where teachers want to feel especially confident and well supported.
In units like Our Place in Space, The Immune System, Mixtures, and Waves, you’ll now find additional background information and links to carefully chosen external resources. These are there to support your planning and help you teach these lessons with care, without needing to do extra research in your own time.
If you’d like to go deeper, we’ve also shared a series of short pieces on how we approach First Nations content in Stile, and the thinking behind the choices we’ve made.
