In most countries with a Labor party or similar party, U.S. Democrats would be their opponents as the moderate right. US remains brainwashed since "reds under the bed."

Are they in Year 8?

Weather is weather. It's not a city's fault. It is what it is. Hasn't held Melbourne back at all.

Nothing but the lighthouses of Australia. Wonderful piece by @researchremora.

True.

I know!🤷‍♀️
They must be desperate🤦‍♀️
She's not the only Liberal who uses that tone. Don't they get how off-putting it is? I'm thinking Bridget McKenzie and Jane Hulme et al.

No, safe Labor seat. My husband hasn't had any at all.

I get texts from Trumpet, Labor and Climate 200 🤷‍♀️

The best education systems in the world are 100% public. When every kid goes to public school all parents, including the rich ones, want the public schools to be good. Oh, and its great for social cohesion.

But in Australia, we talk about being evidence based but ignore the evidence all the time

When did governments become businesses anyway?

I get where you're coming from but it is up to the school to treat it as a tool for student benefit. The fact results get published contributes to making high stakes.

By that, I mean it is more accurate than classroom assessment. It can identify that a year 8 student is working at a year 4 level and that is useful knowledge.

Secondary. It also helps target the students who struggle.

We do, yes. But I've always found NAPLAN data useful as part of triangulation with other assessments.

Yes, the results aren't prompt but they are still useful.

You're right. I had a MYLNS role (in Victoria) and that gave me the time.

I agree, the results shouldn't be published but the data is useful at student level. For teachers to assess with same accuracy would be a big ask. Teachers and schools need to explain the actual purpose of the tests. NAPLAN results help teachers target students who need support.

Thanks

I read the article and his reasoning seems sound. What am I missing? This is a genuine question.

I believe these are additional sanctions.

Oops 😬

So the Australia Day public holiday is on the 27th this year, I guess that means we can change the date after all
