This morning I was listening to Jane Caro talk about how our public education has been gutted. She has published a book Rich Kid Poor Kid about it. She’s touring the East Coast to talk about her findings and what we need to do to stop the rot which is creating more class division and a system which is more expensive than in ay OECD country (even public ed.)
If you live in Brisbane, Canberra, Sydney or Melbourne you may be interested in checking out what she has to say.
Mods, If this is seen as an ad, let me know so I can change the wording . I do think it’s a very important topic.


Sorry to the parents that send their kids to private school, but every single cent that’s currently going towards subsidising their education and for-profit, rich schools, should be immediately diverted to public schools.
I’m not actually sorry, if you wanna be private, go be private.
