Apologies for the technical difficulties this week, but never fear- here is your weekly installment of DOGS in its entirety!www.adogs.info

Privatisation of education has FAILED Australian children. The refusal to admit the failure of co-mingling market theocracy and an institution such as education.www.adogs.info

Private education providers targeting specifically overseas students and charging exorbitant rates for meaningless qualifications have reached the end of their halycon days of rorts, backdoor passports and nest feathering.www.adogs.info

Successive governments have expected and welcomed massive population growth and all the repercussions of that growth. So why then, for the first time in 15 years, will there be no more Victorian State Scools built?www.adogs.info

DOGS press release, Max Wallace's article - Religion's Dying Swan Act, separation of church and state and a large scale survey on morality.www.adogs.info

Happy 40th Birthday 3cr! Take over the private schools and make them public- The public pay for them, they should be able to use them! www.adogs.info

The 'holiday' period has, in the past, been used by politicians to slyly slip unpopular policy decisions into practice without the public paying too much attention. This year is no different with Mr Turnbull confirming that the final 2 years of the Gonski funding will NOT be honoured.www.adogs.info

Despite a wealth of positive examples of effective and successful public education systems from Scandinavian countries, Canadian provinces and South American countries, Australia seems wedded to the idea of making the same mistakes that the United States and Britain have made- ransoming education to the private sector.www.adogs.info

Saving our public schools in a neo-conservative climate. www.adogs.info

Ravenswood Captain Sarah Haynes went off script to tell it like it is, to the chagrin of the school board. She wrote two versions- one for the school 'censors' and one she truly wished to read. Surface versus substancewww.adogs.info

VET fiasco, the provision of education is not a marketplace. The education of the children of this nation is too important to debase with economic rationalism.www.adogs.info

The Australian Council for the Defense of Government Schools Press Release #629 plus bungled funding figures addressed.www.adogs.info

Our children's birthright should not be the plaything of market theocratists. States at mercy of Federal Government's maket theocracy. Australia is the only country to ransom its educational future. www.adogs.info

Worn out privatisation rhetoric spewing forth from the new minister.  How many poor public schools has Birmingham ever visited?  The DOGS have never unquestioningly supported Gonski as it is really a form of voucher system. www.adogs.info

Tax-paying parents are NOT entitled to but are OWED State Schools that deliver a first-rate education that is offensive to none. State schools should be owned and controlled by the public and be publicly accountable ergo they are the only ones that should be publicly funded.

Analysis of education policy issues. Free market capitalist and the education system do not mix. Where a natural monopoly exists, it should be run by and for the public, and overseen by the people.www.adogs.info

Marketeerers profiting from Education,  State-sanctioned Religious discrimination. What happens in Australia, almost uniquely worldwide, is that when tax payers money goes to religious institutions, there is NO oversight of that money. All religiously based private schools in Australia is free from the Anti-Discrimination Act. For Dennis Hart, the Enlightenment NEVER HAPPENED. www.adogs.info

Information on Simon Birmingham and Australia's VET systemwww.adogs.info

Birmingham may indulge in softer rhetoric but there's no evidence of commitment to anything other the tired old Liberal market ideology. He has stated that he will be "true the the values" of the Liberal party's policy on Education.www.adogs.info
