'Government schools, in particular, suffer because they lack the flexibility and freedom to select and manage staff, to implement a curriculum that best suits their students’ expectations and abilities and to innovate and implement best practice pedagogy.
It should not surprise that Catholic and independent schools achieve stronger results compared to government schools, even after adjusting for students’ home background, as they have greater autonomy and the freedom to compete.
A definition of madness is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. In many ways Australia’s education system epitomises such an approach, as the politicians, policy makers and educational bureaucrats in control keep repeating the same mistakes.
As to whether the report investigating the most effective way to spend the additional Gonski 2.0 billions signifies a radically different or new approach we will soon know – but based on past practice don’t hold your breath.'
This arsehole was given oxygen again by The Age. This is part of his horseshit, I couldn't be bothered to copy and paste it all.
