- Life Planning: Designing a Happy, Independent Life – Life planning means thinking ahead about the kind of life you want and how to get there. Life passes through stages (childhood, teenage years, young adulthood, adulthood, older age), each with its own tasks. Along the way come life events, some shared by most people and some chosen. You use five resources: time, money, health, people and skills. A good plan sets short, medium and long-term goals, prepares for risks with savings, insurance and public welfare, and is reviewed as life changes. Being an independent citizen means taking responsibility for yourself and others. In ageing societies with few births, planning for later life matters more than ever. Happiness comes from wellbeing in body, mind, relationships and purpose, not from money alone.
- Child Development: Stages, Milestones and Care – Growth is a child getting bigger. Development is a child getting more skilled: in body, thinking, language and feelings. It happens in an order, through stages (infant, toddler, early childhood, middle childhood, adolescence), with milestones that most children reach at about the same age. Good nutrition, play, love, safety and responsive adults help every area grow.
- Family Law: Marriage, Parents and Children – Family law is the part of private (civil) law that deals with marriage, the relationship between spouses, parents and children, divorce, maintenance, guardianship and adoption. In most countries a valid marriage needs two adults who freely agree, are not already married and are not close relatives, and it is registered. Spouses have equal rights and duties. Parents must care for, maintain and educate their children, and every decision about a child follows the principle of the child's best interests. Children without parental care are protected through guardianship, foster care and adoption.

- Smart Ways to Manage Your Finances – Inflation makes prices rise, so the same money buys less. Money kept in a bank earns interest: simple interest is paid only on the original amount, while compound interest also earns interest on earlier interest, so it grows faster over time. A budget plans income into needs, wants and savings. Savings are kept safe; investments can grow but carry risk, and higher possible returns mean higher risk. Insurance shares risk among many people. Income tax is paid on income above a limit, at rates that rise with income.
- Nutrition – Nutrition is how we get and use the substances in food. The body needs six groups of nutrients: carbohydrates and fats (mainly energy), proteins (growth and repair), vitamins and minerals (small amounts to keep the body working), and water, plus fibre for healthy digestion. Carbohydrate and protein give about 17 kJ per gram, fat about 37 kJ per gram. A balanced diet gives all nutrients in the right amounts, and energy in should roughly equal energy out.
- Fashion Design Basics – Fashion design is planning clothes that look good, fit well, work for their purpose and sell. Every garment travels along a chain: fibre is spun into yarn, yarn is woven or knitted into fabric, fabric is cut and sewn into a garment, and the garment is sold in a shop or online. Fibres can be natural (cotton, wool, silk, linen) or synthetic (polyester, nylon), and each gives fabric different properties. Designers use elements of design (colour, line, shape or silhouette, texture) and principles of design (balance, proportion, emphasis, rhythm, harmony). The design process goes from research and a mood board to sketches, patterns, a sample, production and selling. Merchandising and marketing match the product to a target market using the 4 Ps: product, price, place and promotion. Today designers must also think about sustainability.
- Housing: How Homes Meet Our Needs and Change Over Time – Housing is the place where people live. A good home gives shelter, safety, privacy, health and a sense of belonging. Houses are shaped by climate, local materials, culture, money and the way families live. Inside, living space is arranged into private, shared and service zones. A healthy home has fresh air, daylight, low damp and is kept clean and organised. Housing changes as society changes: from traditional houses such as courtyard homes to city apartments and future green, smart and shared homes. Fair access to decent, affordable housing is an important social issue.
