Aligned to the Australian Curriculum v9
How Lessona maps to the framework you actually plan against.
Lessona maps every Australian lesson to the Australian Curriculum v9 content descriptions and achievement standards for the relevant year level. The plan cites the strand, the sub-strand, and the specific content description code (e.g. AC9E4LY03) so heads of department and curriculum coordinators can verify alignment at a glance.
Coverage runs Foundation to Year 12 across all eight learning areas: English; Mathematics; Science; HASS (Humanities and Social Sciences); the Arts; Technologies; Health and Physical Education; and Languages. Year 11 to 12 plans cite ACARA's Senior Secondary Curriculum or your state's syllabus where it diverges (VCAA in Victoria, NESA in NSW, QCAA in Queensland, SACE in South Australia, BSSS in the ACT, SCSA in Western Australia).
General capabilities (Literacy, Numeracy, Critical and Creative Thinking, Personal and Social, Ethical Understanding, Intercultural Understanding, ICT, and Digital Literacy) and cross-curriculum priorities (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures, Asia and Australia's Engagement with Asia, Sustainability) are woven in where they fit naturally, not bolted on.

Schools enquiryCommon questions
What Australian teachers usually want to know before signing up.
Does Lessona align to the Australian Curriculum v9?
Yes. Every Australian lesson plan cites the relevant v9 content description code, strand, sub-strand, and achievement standard. Coverage runs Foundation to Year 12 across all eight learning areas.
What about state-specific syllabuses (VCAA, NESA, QCAA, SACE, BSSS, SCSA)?
Lessona's primary alignment is the Australian Curriculum v9. For Year 11 to 12, plans cite your state's syllabus where it diverges from the federal framework. You can set the state in your teacher profile so subject-specific terminology and assessment language follow your jurisdiction.
How does Lessona handle the cross-curriculum priorities?
The three v9 cross-curriculum priorities (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures; Asia and Australia's Engagement with Asia; Sustainability) and the seven general capabilities are woven into plans where they fit naturally. Lessona does not bolt them on as a separate checklist box.
How much does Lessona cost for Australian teachers?
AU$19.99 per month, billed monthly in AUD via Stripe. There is a 7-day free trial that includes 3 lesson plans, 2 presentations, and 5 printable resources, with no credit card required. Cancel any time. Schools subscriptions are invoiced annually direct to the school.
How is Lessona different from Chalkie or Education Perfect?
Lessona is unlimited (no credit caps), drafts the lesson plan from one prompt with the presentation, worksheet, and exit ticket as one-click follow-ons off that plan, and is curriculum-aligned across the v9 strands rather than presentation-led. Chalkie originated in Australia and focuses on AI slide-deck generation; Education Perfect is a full learning platform with content libraries. Lessona is a planning tool, not a content library or a presentation generator.
Is Lessona compatible with NAPLAN preparation?
NAPLAN content is not a separate Lessona module. Plans for the v9 Literacy and Numeracy strands in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9 cover the skills NAPLAN assesses (reading comprehension, writing, language conventions, numeracy). Teachers wanting NAPLAN-specific practice should pair Lessona's plans with the official ACARA practice tests.
Has Lessona been tested with Australian teachers?
Phase 1 testing with NZ teachers wrapped up in April 2026 and the product passed. Phase 2 is now underway with primary and secondary teachers in Australia, covering Australian Curriculum v9 alignment across the General Capabilities and Cross-Curriculum Priorities. Findings from this round are folded into the Australian templates before full public availability later in 2026.
