Incorporating Traditional Cultural Material into the Curriculum of Aboriginal Community Schools
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 July 2015
Extract
Queensland has isolated Aboriginal communities whose contact with the dominant society is restricted by the tyranny of distance, if nothing else. Several additional communities experience greater contact because of proximity.
In 1972, a majority of these schools were still mission controlled. Transition to State responsibility has occurred at various negotiated rates, but by 1978 all were the responsibility of the Queensland Education Department except for Islander schools in the Torres Straits. These remained the concern of the Department of Aboriginal and Islanders Advancement until 1985.
