It is unlawful under the "Disability Discrimination Act 1992" (Cth) for Australian schools to discriminate against students based on disability.

Federal and highly decentralized political systems open different spaces to interpret, adapt, and enact international policy trends and ideas within the same territory.

Marco Bertoni; Gabriel Heller-Sahlgren; Olmo Silva – Centre for Economic Performance, 2023
We investigate the impact of attending a free school in England -- that is, a new start-up school that enjoys considerable autonomy while remaining in the state sector. We analyse the effects of two secondary free schools with different teaching philosophies: one follows a 'no excuse' paradigm, while the other one adopts a 'classical liberal',…

Amanda Keddie; Jill Blackmore; Katrina MacDonald – Educational Management Administration & Leadership, 2024
The articulation of school autonomy into practice nationally, regionally and locally is highly situated in terms of what it enables or impedes with regard to the professional autonomy of principals and teachers. Principal autonomy does not necessarily mean greater teacher professional autonomy. In this paper, we draw on a three-year qualitative…

The internationalization of higher education (IHE) has become a key policy issue for governments, a research field for scholars, a strategic priority for universities, and a career orientation for administrative staff. Yet, with recent social, political, and economic trends heavily embellished by globalization and neoliberalism, the term IHE has…

Prabhu Venkataraman; Bharat Konwar – Education 3-13, 2024
In the recent literature on the regulation of private schools by the state, Tooley argues that the state should refrain from such a practice.
