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”.

  • Buying an Education: Where Are the Returns Highest?
    THE AUSTRALIA INSTITUTE Buying an education: Where are the returns highest? January 2004 Richard Denniss The Australian education system is currently experiencing rapid change at all levels. This paper considers the recent trends in private school enrolments and fees in light of the new university arrangements which allow for Australian citizens to enrol as full fee paying students rather than having to rely solely on academic merit to earn a place. The paper argues that if parents are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on their children’s school education to ensure that they can gain a place in a prestigious university course then they would be financially better off sending their children to public schools and using the money saved to buy them a full fee paying place at an Australian university. Trends in government and non-government school enrolments Enrolments in Australian private schools have risen steadily in Australia over the past 20 years. The absolute number of students enrolled in government schools has actually declined from 2.36 million in 1977 to 2.26 million in 2002. This decline in government school enrolments occurred over a period in which the total number of children enrolled in schools increased by 300,000. Enrolments in non-government schools have, therefore, risen from 21.1 per cent of all school enrolments to 31.6 per cent over the period 1977 to 2002 (ABS cat. 4221.0). Figure 1 demonstrates these trends. Figure 1 Enrolment in government and non-government schools 1977-2002 2,500,000 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000,000 500,000 0 1977 1982 1987 1992 1997 2000 2001 2002 Government Non Governemnt Source: ABS Cat.

  • Training of Residential Staff
    TRAINING OF RESIDENTIAL STAFF IN AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND BOARDING SCHOOLS Anjo Tarte - Lecturer THE GUILD CENTRE TEACHING AND CURRICULUM STUDIES FACULTY OF EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF SYDNEY TRAINING OF RESIDENTIAL STAFF IN AUSTRALIAN BOARDING SCHOOLS ANJO TARTE - LECTURER GUILD CENTRE UNIVERSITY OF SYDNEY INTRODUCTION The purpose of investigating training and professional development opportunities in residential settings stems from a survey conducted by the Guild Centre in 1986 which attempted to identify residential care needs in order to develop a program of studies in residential care and administration. In addition, employees attending inservice courses in residential care at the Guild Centre for the past five years have indicated a need for developing their expertise in terms of skills training and acquisition of knowledge in their profession in order to keep abreast of innovation and change occurring in boarding schools. In 1989 the Guild Centre obtained a Department of Employment and Education grant for the purpose of training and supervising house parents for the Australia Traineeship Program. 1,2 BACKGROUND TO STAFFING IN BOARDING SCHOOLS Boarding schools vary in size from twenty to over a thousand students. The sheer size of some schools has great influence on the ethos and philosophy of the institution. All schools have structures, hierarchies and organisation but the size of a boarding school may determine the extent of the development and the formality of its structures, parameters and philosophy. For the boarding component many of the larger schools and particularly the male schools have drawn on their teaching and pastoral care staff for leadership in the administrative and managerial positions.
