Term 1 2026 release - What's new in Planuva

To help teachers begin the school year on a strong start, Planuva has delivered a major set of improvements ready for Term 1, shaped directly by feedback from schools and educators.

This term’s release focuses on our core mission: smarter planning and stronger collaboration in schools. Below are some of the major highlights.

Build programs faster

Creating and improving your programs is now quicker than ever, with tools that reduce duplication and preserve the value of professional work over time.

• Australian Curriculum import and KLA filtering
  Our seamless Australian Curriculum importer allows you to import any syllabus you require quickly.

• AI program generator
  Generate teaching programs, including units, week, and lesson briefs in minutes. Our AI program generator provides a strong starting point while leaving room for professional judgement, refinement, and local context.

• AI lesson plan draft generator
  Turn ideas into workable lesson drafts quickly, helping teachers move past the blank page and focus on refining learning experiences.

• Parent explainer generator
  Create clear, plain language summaries of curriculum programs to support communication with parents and carers.

• Academic year switcher
  Move seamlessly between past, current, and future academic years without losing context or momentum in your planning.

Teams in sync, without stress

Great curriculum is built in schools together, rather than working alone in silos. This term we have focused on strengthening collaboration in faculties and teams by making your curriculum easier to adapt, improve, and coordinate.

• Real-time collaboration
  Planuva supports multiple teachers working on curriculum improvement at once. See exactly where colleagues are working and watch changes happen live, so you can collaborate on multiple devices either in-person, the classroom or even the comfort of your home.

• Merge versions (early access)
  Synchronise class-specific versions with shared programs while resolving differences side by side. This allows Teachers to share back any improvements they make into the faculty master program, facilitating continual and evidence-based curriculum improvement.

• Discussions
  Hold ongoing professional conversations about programs, units, and lessons directly in context, so ideas, questions, and improvements stay connected to the work itself, helping guide faculty planning days and continuous curriculum improvement.

See your curriculum at a glance

Clear visibility supports confident decision making and meaningful professional conversations.

• Insights
  View curriculum coverage across by syllabus, KLA or year level, helping all teachers quickly identify gaps and easily address them.
• Interactive syllabus graph view
  In addition to listing outcomes, you can now explore how outcomes, content, and lessons connect visually.

Beyond these headline features, this release includes a range of practical improvements that make day to day use smoother, including faster performance and an overhauled user experience.

We are excited for you to explore these updates and see how much easier planning, collaboration, and curriculum visibility can feel this term. As always, your feedback continues to shape how Planuva evolves, and we are making it for you, our teachers.
