Some interesting points and observations in this book. I found it difficult to relate to much of it, however, as Michael paints a very dim and dismal picture of Australian education which I haven’t seen. I’m thankful to be working in the private, independent school I work in. I definitely agree that some things across the board in our education system should change, and it’s always good to see how different countries are doing things. The last three chapters, however, had very little to do with the rest of the book, and I feel like they were out of place.
