@jhalbert8 & @kaser_linda join us again on the gift of affiliation. Belonging begins when we acknowledge each other as people- de-emphasize roles/titles & listen 2 every voice. Belonging means being able 2 raise issues, confront harsh truths as a full member of a community

So grateful for the advocacy of @JaneCaro Aust the most generous public finder of private ed in the world with no expectations or obligations on those pvt schools. The taxes of the poor subsidizing the rich so the rich can shut out the ch’n of the poor and entrench disadvantage.

[Christopher Martin @Christopherm36]

41% of Aust public schools now classified by the OECD as disadvantaged.

3% of Catholic Schools

<1% of other independent schools

Aust has exponentially divided our children according to advantage and disadvantage.
