How Australians fund schooling has been a matter of bitter political, social and religious
division for almost two hundred years. And it remains so. The 2012 Gonski Review,
urging all jurisdictions to move towards consensus on a needs-based and socially just
education system, has continued to encounter forms of political obstruction. By examining
the principles, the motives and the means of those who, since Menzies, have fought
to develop and maintain a class-based education system at the expense of a broader
view of social justice, this book explains how and why Australian education policy
remains mired in political controversy
