It’s a draft for a reason. It was shared with 5 people who leaked it.
A high level draft is missing keywords like matter and particles...

Buntting said the draft was very high-level, as were curriculum documents for other subjects but it was clear it needed more clarity about where teachers should expect to teach various science concepts. Education Minister Jan Tinetti said there was no question the final curriculum would include chemistry, physics and biology and other core science topics. I read this as a basic first draft floating the notion of looking more at the interplay of Physics + Chemistry + Environment + Math + etc in early pre-secondary school in order to gain feedback on final education mix. Broaching change ruffles feathers, and playing up outrage makes for good eyeball catching news fodder.
