To what extent should curriculum be regulated? This is a basic question of curriculum policies. This article tries to answer this question by analysing "Regulation" and "Discretion" in curriculum policies in New South Wales, Australia. In New South Wales, the curriculum policies reform was started in 1988. The report entitled Excellence and Equity - New South Wales Curriulum Reform - describes general direction of the reform. According to this report, the purpose of the reform is to simultaneously to improve basic skills of students and to meet each student's demand including minority. In order to accomplish this purpose, new curriculum policies make regulations and give discretion of curriculum in balance. Because without regulations it is impossible to improve basic skills and without discretion it is impossible to meet diverse expectations of students. Specifically, taking for instance lower secondary level, concering the time allocation in curriculum 60% of all time was regulated, but 40% was left to discretion of the school. This characterizes newly introduced curriculum policies in New South Wales. Further this article has an analyses the current curriculum of Richmond River High School to exemplify the result of the reform. In conclusion, I would place emphasis on the importance of the balance between "Regulation" and "Discretion" in curriculum policies. Because the balanced curriculum policies make it possible to measure up to demand from a society or a nation and each student. The contents are as follows. 1) The objectives of the study. 2) The problems of curriculum policies before the reform 3) The development of the curriculum policies reform 4) Current curriculum in Richmond River High School 5) Conclusion
