Together these are used to show that Kemp had a 'double vision' of school quality that was quite different for private, and especially elite private, schools and public schools. The paper concludes that the title of his speech, 'Quality for all', was misleading and that the Coalition government's priorities in school education are more adequately described as 'quality for some'. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | ANZCIES 2005: 33rd Annual Australian and New Zealand Comparative and International Education Society Conference, Coffs Harbour, Australia, 2nd - 4 December, 2005 | Source of Publication: | Questioning 'Best Practice' in Education: Benefits and Disadvantages, Debates and Dilemmas - Proceedings of the Australian and New Zealand Comparative and International Education Society (ANZCIES) 33rd Annual Conference, p. 129-139 | Publisher: | University of New England, School of Education, Centre for Research on International Education and Sustainability | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130304 Educational Administration, Management and Leadership | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.anzcies.org/about.php#conference_history http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/25172547 |
