  • An Overview of Stile, Australia's #1 Science Resource Provider
    An overview of Stile, Australia’s #1 science resource provider EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR SCHOOL LEADERS Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 2 Table of contents Welcome letter 3 How we are rethinking science education > Our principles 5 > Our pedagogy 7 > Our approach 9 A simple solution > Stile Classroom 12 > Squiz 14 > Professional learning 15 > Stile Concierge 16 Key benefits 17 The Stile community of schools 19 The rest is easy 24 Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 3 It’s time to rethink science at school I’m continuously awestruck by the sheer power of science. In a mere 500 years, a tiny fraction of humanity’s long history, science – and the technological advances that have stemmed from it – has completely transformed every part of our lives. The scale of humanity’s scientific transformation in such a short period is so immense it’s hard to grasp. My grandmother was alive when one of the world’s oldest airlines, Qantas, was born. In her lifetime, flight has become as routine as daily roll call. Disease, famine and the toll of manual labour that once ravaged the world’s population have also been dramatically reduced. Science is at the heart of this progress. Given such incredible advancement, it’s tempting to think that science education must be in pretty good shape. Sadly, it isn’t. We could talk about falling PISA rankings, or declining STEM enrolments. But instead, and perhaps more importantly, let’s consider the world to which our students will graduate. A world of “fake news” and “alternative facts”.

  • School Fees Report 2019 Introduction
    School Fees Report 2019 Introduction With one in three Australian families sending their child to a non- Government school, private school fees are a huge investment for parents. Edstart’s School Fees Report helps you understand the trends in private school fees across the country. This year’s report analysed fees from over 300 schools, covering tuition, compulsory additional fees and boarding fees. Overall Trends Private school fees across Australia have risen by an average of 3.1% in 2019, which is slightly down from 3.2% last year. While almost 9% of schools reduced their fees or had no fee change, we found that over 84% of schools increased their fees by more than the current inflation rate of 1.8%*. Fee inflation also continued to outpace the average wage growth rate of 2.2%. While there was a small drop in school fee inflation this year, state-based fee analysis showed significant geographic variances. NSW and Victoria continued to lead the way with the highest average school fees and smallest percentage of schools where fees remained the same or were reduced. Western Australia saw the highest percentage of schools that did not raise their fees in 2019 and the lowest average increase in fees at merely 1.58%. On the other hand, ACT showed the highest fee increase of 5.07%. These statewide trends are caused by some of the key themes that are explained further below. A Tale of Three Parts While overall school fee trends were consistent with prior years, 2019 has generated the largest variety of school fee changes in many years.

    Senate Standing Committee on Education Employment and Workplace Relations QUESTIONS ON NOTICE Budget Estimates 2012-2013 Outcome 2 – Schools and Youth DEEWR Question No. EW0386_13 Senator Mason asked on 31 May 2012 , Hansard page 23 Question Current Indigenous funding Senator MASON: I understand the debate. Is it possible that the department could provide the committee with a list of non-government schools with Indigenous enrolments of less than five per cent that currently receive a loading per Indigenous student under current funding arrangements? Ms Paul: Yes. To be honest, I cannot recall how the current Indigenous funding works, whether or not it works on a per student basis. Nonetheless, we can certainly give you the most recent data on enrolments. Senator MASON: You can do that, all right. Answer Under the current funding arrangements, schools in receipt of grants for recurrent expenditure, are eligible to receive Indigenous Supplementary Assistance in respect of Indigenous students, paid on a per capita basis regardless of the concentration of Indigenous students at the school. The following is a list of non-government schools with Indigenous enrolments of less than 5 per cent of total enrolments. This is based on 2011 data from the Census of Non-Government Schools.
