My kids attend Govt High School, they are aged 13 and 15. During English and Humanities subejcts, several staff have written on the white board "Liberals are racist" and "Abbot is Evil" just to name a few. Im happy for kids to be taught about the Australian Political system but dont be sending kids subliminal messages about your political stance please teachers. Have taken this up with the School and will go to Education Dept if no satisfactory resolution is found. The office of Prime Minister Ship should be treated with respect, regardless of who you vote for. Kids should not be brainwashed by Educationers which we all know are primarily Labour Voters.

If anything you should be grateful your children are being taught by honest teachers honesty is a very important thing for school children to be learning.

 

Well done to those teachers. Woman Wink

Hopefully, the teachers of your children are more proficient.

Re: Teachers preaching their political beliefs to students

If What you say is true then approach the principal as teaches must teach approved curriculum, and the comments posted would most deffinately step outside of that, as to the above posts I would tend to ignore them as the labor supporters on here are incapable of looking past their indoctrination of labor responses to see that any thing beyond their glee at an attack on Tony Abbott, which is sad because even if it was reversed and the comments on the board were anti labor they would still be inappropriate.
if you are worried about approach ing the principal you can as suggested go via the p and c if you have one

A lot more concerning......... 

 

 

Questions over curriculum experts' links to Coalition

 

The subject experts appointed to the Abbott government's national curriculum review included several figures with close Coalition links who were chosen without any scrutiny from education officials.

 

University of Sydney poetry professor Barry Spurr, one of the specialist reviewers of the English curriculum, has been suspended from academic duties after leaked emails showed him referring to "all bleeped".  

 

Professor Spurr argued in his subject review that the impact of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander literature in Australia had been "minimal" and that there should be a greater focus on western civilisation in the curriculum.


The leaked emails have sparked accusations from Labor and the Greens that the appointment process for the subject experts – many of whom are quoted at length in the review to justify changes to the curriculum – lacked transparency and rigour.

 

Education Department officials told Senate estimates hearings on Wednesday that they did not scrutinise the qualifications of the subject specialists, who were paid $8250 each for their input, before they were appointed.

 

Education Minister Christopher Pyne said the subject experts were chosen by the two reviewers, Kevin Donnelly and Kenneth Wiltshire, with no input from him or his office.

You know, it just never occurred to me that teachers were Labor voters. I wonder why that would be?

What other professions have a particular preference?

Christopher Pyne is trying to distance himself from the Barry Spurr expose. He is the Minister of Education, what does he get paid for?
