The gap between the demands placed on education in Australia and the resources allocated to it by government has increased dramatically in recent years. The education system is expected to absorb youth unemployment and play a key role in the modernisation of the economy, yet education spending as a proportion of GDP has declined. The notion of education as being important for its own sake and a key to equality in society seems to have been set aside, and economics now dominates debate on education policy. This book summarises and analyses the major issues in Australian education policy today: the relationship between education and work; the reform of higher education and vocational training; outputs, resources and class sizes; the role of government and the public/private debate in schooling. It also examines the main economic theories about education, including human capital theory and free market theory, and finds them seriously inadequate as a basis for policy. The author argues that economic rationalism has installed a free market agenda at the heart of public education policy, with deep consequences for the academic and democratic development of Australia's citizens.

Despite the Australian Constitution implying school education to be a state responsibility, the Commonwealth has increasingly interfered with state school education. The Australian Government Muscling in on School Education therefore offers a historical account of this government involvement in Australian education, from federation to the present day, providing a much-needed, fully updated and relevant overview the topic. Arguing that education has become an arena for competing political forces, this book examines the powerful influence of the Commonwealth over education and the political motives behind it, exploring how politics influences aspects of the curriculum, teaching standards, assessment and reporting, funding, teacher selection and policy more broadly. Ultimately questioning whether this influence is in the interests of the members of the community who depend on education, the book holds government engagement in education to account. Taking the major epochs of federalism as an organizing framework, the book’s chapters include explorations of: The efficiency dynamic and the progressive years (1919–39) Postwar imperatives and the Menzies years (1949–72) Coordinative federalism and treading softly: the Whitlam years (1972–5) and Fraser years (1975–83) Corporate federalism: the Hawke/Keating years (1983–96) Supply-side federalism and globalization: the Howard years (1996–2007) National control and the Rudd, Gillard, Abbott, Turnbull and Morrison years (2007–15) A thorough and significant examination of the historical engagement of the Australian government in education, this book is essential reading for student teachers and postgraduate students in education studies and politics.

Most of the staff and resources in government schools in Australia and New Zealand are directly allocated by state education authorities. This direct allocation occurs either at a central or regional level. System-wide resource allocation policies set the boundaries within which schools operate. This report documents the ways in which eight government education systems allocate staff and resources to schools. Differences and new developments are noted in order to suggest future initiatives and similarities are described so that the foundations of policies can be elucidated. Detailed compilations of the staffing formulae used by each system are reported. The authors note that these formulae govern closely the allocation of staff to schools. At present there is little scope for recognition of the special requirements of individual schools. It is suggested that there should be a greater recognition of school- determined priorities. An approach called a basket of services is discussed. It also suggests basing a proportion of school staffing on school needs using a system of prospective reviews of circumstances and programs.

During the lead up to the 2007 federal election, Kevin Rudd's promise of an education revolution was centre stage and a vote winner for the ALP opposition. Copying the Howard Government's education agenda, Rudd promised a back to basics approach to the curriculum, schools and teachers being held accountable for performance and continued funding to non-government schools. Whether a national curriculum, national testing, national teacher registration, holding schools accountable or merit-based pay for teachers, the reality is that state and territory schools are being radically transformed. Is Rudd's education revolution successful and will standards improve? Based on the last 12 months the answer is 'no'. The cost of the computer program has blown out be millions, the waste and mismanagement of the school infrastructure program is being investigated by the Auditor-General and schools are losing their independence and being micro-managed by Canberra. The very changes needed to raise standards, like school vouchers where the money follows the child and more parents can choose non-government schools and giving schools the autonomy and flexibility to get on with the job, are denied and the danger is that nothing will improve. This collection of opinion pieces, primarily taken from The Australian newspaper, traces the rise and fall of Rudd's education revolution and provides a detailed account of Australia's education wars. Issues include, school accountability and league tables, teacher merit pay, why Catholic and independent schools should be funded by government, why standards have fallen and the impact of Australia's dumbed down and politically correct curriculum. Dr Donnelly also details what needs to be done to have a real education revolution, including how to strengthen government schools.
