Primary Teacher Diaries & Teacher Weekly Planners

Planning in Australian primary schools isn’t just lesson prep — it’s curriculum alignment, evidence collection, adjustments, reflection, communication, and follow-up. Our Primary Teacher collection has been designed to support real classroom practice across Foundation to Year 6, using the Butler Method planning loop to help teachers plan clearly, capture evidence as they teach, and stay organised across the week, term, and year.

Weekly Teacher Planning and Reflection Diaries for Australian Primary School Teachers (Foundation to Year 6)

Primary teachers are expected to plan across multiple learning areas while responding to student needs, behaviour, attendance patterns, support plans, and curriculum expectations. A weekly system only works if it supports what teachers actually do: plan learning, teach it, observe and assess, record evidence, then adjust the next week. That is the purpose behind this collection.

Each diary in this collection is designed around a clear weekly structure that supports English, Mathematics, Science, HASS/HSIE, HPE/PDHPE, The Arts, Technologies and Languages/Other, with dedicated space for capabilities and priorities such as ICT, Ethical understanding, Intercultural understanding, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures, and Sustainability. Teachers can record curriculum links in the format required by their school, whether that is national curriculum alignment or state syllabus references.

The Butler Method approach is built into the format to reduce overwhelm and make documentation sustainable. With space to plan learning intentions, track success criteria, capture evidence types, record adjustments, and reflect each week, these diaries support stronger teaching habits and clearer reporting — without relying on scattered notes, extra templates, or after-hours paperwork.

Butlers Diaries

I've been purchasing Program and reflection diaries from Butlers for many years, and I wouldn't purchase them from anywhere else. They have everything you need to do a complete program. The new column on the end "Extension experiences etc is a great addition. The jotters notebok is a good size for carrying arund through out the day, to make notes, write ideas and write brief observations.

Best Reflection Diary Ever!

This book is the best and most simple diary to follow to do my reflecting on everything. So pleased to be able to use it.

Rachel Patchett
2024 6 Month Weekly Programming and Reflection Child Educator Diary
Best thing ever

The Exceeding Guidance for the National Quality Standard: Evidence Summary is a really great book for centres that repeat on one standards instead of exploring others to make the childcare place a better place for children. The resources in this book are a really big help in order to meet our standards.
