  • 3Rd Annual Australian Islamic Schooling Conference (AAISC3) We Meet on the Lands of the Kaurna People
    1 3rd Annual Australian Islamic Schooling Kindly supported by Conference (AAISC3) Islamic Schooling Renewal A Focus on Pedagogy 10 – 11 July, 2018 Stamford Grand Adelaide Hotel, Glenelg South Australia 2 Acknowledgement Adab is a concept familiar to members of the Australian Islamic schooling community. In the Islamic tradition, adab can be viewed as an essential part of the process as well as the outcome of an education. Adab relates to a search for and the manifestation of one’s own humanity. Adab also relates to justice and the proper order of things under the one Great Creator. In this spirit, and with the intention of acknowledging the proper place of things, the Centre for Islamic Thought and Education (CITE) acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first peoples of Australia; as the traditional custodians of the land and recognise their continuing connection to land, water and community. The CITE acknowledges the Kaurna people as the traditional custodians of the lands on which our university is located and where we conduct our business. The CITE further acknowledges that on the occasion of this 3rd Annual Australian Islamic Schooling Conference (AAISC3) we meet on the lands of the Kaurna people. The CITE acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities for their resilience and commitment to healing and positive shared futures in Australia. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We pay tribute to and honour their enduring stewardship of this country, and honour the ongoing contribution of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to the environmental, social, cultural, political and economic fabric of our society.

    Senate Committee: Education and Employment QUESTION ON NOTICE Budget Estimates 2017 - 2018 Outcome: Schools and Youth Department of Education and Training Question No. SQ17-000796 Senator Collins, Jacinta provided in writing Students with disabilities loading Question Please provide the estimated SWD loading amount to be paid (total) to each approved authority in 2017, using current legislated settings in the Australian Education Act 2013, and the number of students with disability underpinning that estimated loading in each approved authority. Answer The table below provides the Commonwealth funding contribution to the students with disability (SWD) loading and the number of students which attract the loading for each approved authority in 2017. The 2017 figures are estimated entitlements as at the 2017–18 Budget. The student count is an estimate based on the 2016 Schools Census data and departmental enrolment projections. Census data on SWD is determined by whether the student meets the requirements of the state or territory in which the schools is located for financial assistance to be provided in relation to the student as a student with disability. The 2017 census data on SWD will inform the final 2017 loadings, with any changes to funding reconciled with the final recurrent schooling funding payments for this year (as per usual departmental processes). The table has supressed cells where the count was less than six due to privacy concerns. The SWD loading is not a stand-alone amount. It is fully integrated into the calculation of full entitlements under the Australian Education Act 2013 and is inextricably linked to the calculation of transition, base funding and other loadings.

  • Senate Committee: Education and Employment
    Senate Committee: Education and Employment QUESTION ON NOTICE Supplementary Budget Estimates 2016 - 2017 Outcome: Schools and Youth Department of Education and Training Question No. SQ16-000852 Senator Collins, Jacinta provided in writing. Data and modelling - School Resourcing Standard Question How close is the amount of per-student funding provided in the 2016 school year in each state, territory, and non-government system and non-systemic school to the School Resourcing Standard? o How close will this be at the end of 2017? o At the end of 2019? Answer Funding under the Australian Education Act 2013 (the Act) is determined at the Approved Authority (AA) level where an AA represents one or more schools. The Schooling Resource Standard (SRS) is based on total public funding only (that is, Commonwealth and state or territory recurrent funding). The following table shows a theoretical estimate of the total public funding and Commonwealth funding as a projected percentage of the SRS for each approved authority in 2016 and 2017 if current arrangements under the Act and National Education Reform Agreement (NERA) were to continue. The total public funding estimate assumes that state and territory funding has been provided as envisaged by the Act and NERA, however, only three states have signed bilateral agreements that commit to providing these funds. For the current schools funding period (2014‒2017) the Australian Government agreed to pay all states on the same basis as if they had signed bilateral agreements under the NERA to be fully participating in accordance with the Act. Projected SRS percentages are presented on this basis.

Within Australia’s religiously pluralistic mosaic there is no history of the Muslim faith without sharing universal values with other faiths. This paper is primarily based on empirical research undertaken in Victoria. It is a pioneering exploration of the building of multiethnic Muslim communities and interfaith relations from the 1950s to the 1980s. It is part of much broader research on the history of Islam in Australia. It is kaleidoscopic in its gathering of individual and family migrant memories from Muslims in all walks of life.
