Australia's Education System is woefully underperforming
While our educational standards continue to plummet by every measure, the conversation is centred on distractions. With billions of dollars spent, it's time to ask... what's going on?
WHO WE ARE
4TheKids is a community of South Australian parents, grandparents, carers, and educators with a vision for greater education standards for our kids.
We aim to ignite a culture of excellence in education in both moral and academic standards.
Advocating for Excellence in Education
Education Forum
On the 4th of October, the first week of the South Australian school holidays, several hundred parents, educators, grandparents, leaders and other community members gathered for the Inaugural 4theKids Education Forum. We were delighted to welcome leaders and members of faith-based and multicultural communities from every corner of the globe.
It's time to talk about EXCELLENCE.
We are excited to announce our next event: Colleen Harkin, National Manager, Class Action Program And Research Fellow will be holding a Teacher’s Forum. We hope by connecting like minded educators with the best resources and expertise when it comes to exceptional teaching and student outcomes, we can make a difference 4theKids.
What INSPIRES us?
The Free Michaela School is in a low socio-economic area in London with a high number of refugees. The school is predicated on the values of responsibliy, gratitude and service. The results, both behaviourally and academically, punch well above their postcode, proving that equality of opportunity, moral and academic excellence can be discussed simultaneously.
