The Educational School Fonts collection is a set of handwriting fonts for teachers and pupils.
Each Australian state teaches different handwriting styles in lower primary school (although some states do share the same style), in line with Department of Education Australia standards. There are essentially three stages involved with each state's styles:
- The foundational stage involves learning basic letter formation.
- The transitional stage adds joining ligatures to some letters.
- The cursive stage joins almost all letters (with some exceptions).
The VIC WA NT School Fonts include:
- Victoria, Western Australia and Northern Territory Label Print Alphabet - a simple sloped print for early primary school.
Students in Victoria, Western Australia and Northern Territory learn Label Print from years 1 to 3 and Infant Cursive from year 4. To contribute, see github.com/MezMerrit/AU-School-Handwriting-Fonts.
