Self-described as “a total education page for Australia”, this is a website run by a couple of highly experienced educators.

“We have a combined period of almost 70 years teaching as classroom practitioners, executives, principal, librarian, casual and Relief from Face to Face teacher.

In all these situations, we were often in the difficult position of not knowing what was happening in other states, or even how to find out.

Additionally, we were in schools with extensive English as a Second Language requirements, worked with classes for children with disabilities and classes for students who were gifted. Each became a learning experience that, in many cases, required us to ‘start from scratch’ in terms of where to find both general and specific information to make us as effective as possible.
