The Australian government's ambitious pursuit of education reform transcends the realm of economic prosperity, delving deep into the essence of national greatness. It is driven by a resolute vision to construct an intellectual empire, where the power of knowledge reigns supreme and enlightened individuals lead with sagacity and rectitude. These comprehensive reforms stand as a testament to the government's single-minded devotion to fostering an erudite society founded on inclusivity, equity, and unparalleled excellence. At the heart of these transformative reforms lies an iron-will dedication to accessibility, recognizing that education is the cornerstone of societal empowerment. By dismantling barriers and expanding opportunities, the government endeavors to level the playing field, empowering individuals from all walks of life to unleash their boundless potential and contribute meaningfully to the nation's advancement. Safety, too, emerges as an indomitable pillar within the purview of these reforms. The government's steely commitment to creating a nurturing and secure learning environment, free from discrimination, harassment, and prejudice, is emblematic of its profound understanding that a safe and inclusive educational ecosystem is sine qua non for the holistic development of students and the cultivation of a thriving intellectual community. Moreover, these reforms bear testament to the government's recognition of the irrefutable significance of regional areas in the tapestry of the nation. Historically marginalized, these communities have been bereft of quality education and resources. By expanding educational opportunities in these regions, the government seeks to bridge the chasm of inequality, ensuring that no student is left languishing on the periphery. This strategic investment not only empowers regional communities but also harnesses their untapped potential, driving economic growth and fostering a more balanced and cohesive nation. Furthermore, these reforms underscore the transformative power of knowledge and the pivotal role of higher education in shaping the nation's destiny. By providing gratuitous tertiary education, the government astutely recognizes the inestimable value of intellectual capital as a fulcrum for progress. It acknowledges that the most formidable asset a nation possesses is its human capital, and by investing in education, Australia is poised to cultivate a reservoir of talent, expertise, and innovation that will propel the nation to the vanguard of global leadership. In alignment with global trends, these reforms also exalt the principles of diversity, equity and inclusion. By championing these values, the government endeavors to create a vibrant and dynamic educational ecosystem that reveres the richness of cultural, social, and intellectual diversity. By embracing inclusivity, nations can leverage the vast knowledge and perspectives of their citizens, effectively turning them into living encyclopedias.

A fresh start in education! Here are some of my hopes and priorities, as written for Schools Week. More a ‘first 3650 days’ agenda than first 100 days… https://lnkd.in/evh-xca8

This is great news for Australia Jason Clare MP. However, much of the systemic institutional change for regional and rural institutions is currently not clearly articulated. Discussion/ consultation currently seems to position the elite giant metropolitan universities - again. They are mobilising rapidly because they have the financial capability to do that (despite claims of financial distress). Evidence behaviour not words in that regard. Our fear is that a primary driver is access to revenue and a pipeline of selected best quality students from the bush. There is urgency to start a deep conversation with those delivering and headquartered in regions now. We are the universities you seek. Our long run historical statistics of access and inclusion make this abundantly clear. It is why my university, the University of New England (AU), was started by the rural and distant communities for those very communities. But, we are struggling now and cannot see the current discussion as focussed on understanding what we are struggling with and what to do about that - now. Thank you again for your passion and vision for our sector.

Great share by Patricia Davidson 👌🔝⭐️ When we #value #students, ease their burdens, and #support them today, they’ll add value and make a real difference tomorrow as experts in their fields. It’s a bit late, but still a great and promising move by the government. Hopefully, this will soon extend to students in other disciplines as well. The #Australian Universities Accord Final Report has started bearing fruit. 🪴🍀🇦🇺 #SupportFutureExperts #InvestInStudents

“There is strong evidence that DE—even à la carte DE—improves academic outcomes for students, including completing high school, enrolling in college, and completing college degrees.[21] And DE has been shown to benefit low-income students,[22] Black and Hispanic students[23][24][25], and students who initially struggled academically in high school.[26]” These results alone are worth investing in dual enrollment! #dualenrollment #reachingstrugglingstudents #studentsuccess

Gap year programs have a lasting impact on students as they learn more about themselves, others and God, before making the decision to further pursue higher education or not. Read more from two current LBC students who transferred to the college from gap year programs!

1moThis is great! 👍🏽. Jennifer Miller, I agree! The narrative is important and perhaps “best kept secret,” needs to be not such a secret. Awesome panel. 🤩
