Private schools have good staff morale and a sense of drive and purpose.
A lot of public schools have a public service mentality. Clock watching, unionised, .

It's no surprise the motivated send their kids private where they can mix with similarly motivated parents and teachers.

Says it all about letting socialist losers like the federal government get involved in education.

Parents should give up their grog, smokes, pokies , catch public transport, live on tuna on toast , ANYTHING , to get their kids into a private school. Best investment you'll ever make, migrants recognise this . Second generation migrants excel because of it

Then again the public sector has never really impressed me in any industry.

On Wednesday, Education Minister Christopher Pyne pledged an extra $230 million for states that did not sign up to the former Labor government's so-called Gonski reforms. Out of the new funds, Western Australia will receive $31 million, the Northern Territory will get $67 million and Queensland will bag $131 million next year.
''That means every student in Australia is being treated fairly and equitably,'' Mr Pyne said in Adelaide.
The Coalition argued Labor ''ripped'' $1.2 billion out of schools funding before the election - putting money that had been set aside for states who had not yet signed up to the Gonski plan back into consolidated revenue.

This is why I get labelled as a lefty, because I always expect the Libs to rip funding away from Education, Health, and Welfare, so they can fund better Fringe Benefits for the wealthy. The funny thing is, all my most dire predictions of their acts of utter bastardry, are invariably fulfilled. They will once again run down all public sector spending to ridiculous levels, then pillory Labor as extravagant spenders when they try to restore them to any level of reasonable equity. Libs are tolerable if the centre faction gets a say, but utter pricks when the loony right rules, like we are seeing now. Pyne and Abbott, world class PRICKS.

Jesus F. CHRIST !

... not THAT old, dried up bowl of sh!t, again

Gillard went to the election "determined to put a price on carbon" in the form of an ETS floating price, with a 12 month fixed price run in

Rudd went to an election "determined to put a price on carbon" in the form of an ETS floating price, with a 12 month fixed price run in

( ... what became of THAT "mandate" ?)

Howard went to the same election "determined to put a price on carbon" in the form of an ETS floating price, with a 12 month fixed price run in

Under negotiation and compromise - with independents and The Greens - Gillard's " a 12 month fixed price run in" became three years, under democratic process

Though some RESEMBLENCE, a temporary fixed price on an ETS is NOT a "carbon tax"

A "carbon tax" is a PERMANENTLY placed mechanism

Due to the LibNat and media PERSISTANCE in referring to a temporary fixed price AS a "carbon tax" - Gillard eventually let it slide

She described that decision, in a recent essay, as "one of my biggest errors"

We KNOW - you are WELL AWARE of that

Abbott never had ANY intention of being "at one with Kevin Rudd" on Gonski funding reform if he won the election

The Gonski lies and a unity ticket.

While we laugh at yours.

If you think that the carbon price was a lie then this one is a doosey - no place to hide - no deniability, its just black and white.

They told a direct lie to nullify a week area and to help win the election.
