There has been a lot of debate over the merits of the MySchool website. It is my belief that it provides parents with the opportunity to establish, at least in the basics of education, how the school their children are attending is performing. This is particularly important for parents who are paying exorbitant fees for private schools so as to determine whether this significant investment is paying dividends for their children.
Why the uproar, I ask, especially from the Australian Education Union? Vested interest is sometimes thinly disguised, is it not?
About Me
- Milton
- It concerns me that policy in this nation has drifted away from long-term vision to short-termism. I am interested in discussing policy that promotes sustainable prosperity while ensuring no one is left behind, and which encourages political leadership that is not about being popular or hostage to the vagaries of public opinion and vested interest, but is strong and visionary, having a sense of fairness but encouraging enterprise and self-reliance.
