Abstract: | Australia's changing political, social and economic agendas have triggered a critical analysis of school curriculum. Part
of this consideration has been concern over the future of science education within the context of senior schooling. Following
the completion of the Senior Science Future Directions Project commissioned by the Queensland Board of Senior Secondary School
Studies, fifteen issues were identified. These issues, grouped by the needs of the science disciplines, society and the individual
student, are discussed with the view of understanding the future design of senior science syllabuses.
