So You’ve Been Appointed to a Torres Strait School: A Thumbnail Sketch of the Socio-Historical Context of Torres Strait Education
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 July 2015
Extract
On the basis of my own experience as a teacher in Torres Strait from 1968-1972 and feedback from preservice teachers studying “Education in Torres Strait”, I have decided to provide teachers and principals new to the region some background information on the context in which they find themselves. My position is that education is constrained by its present socio-political context which has been shaped by its past.
