36. Redeeming the National Curriculum
Show Notes

Can the Australian National Curriculum be redeemed? The question itself implies that there might be something wrong with the curriculum provided by ACARA, and indeed listening to the pundits and commentators, apparently there may be. For proponents of classical education, however, the real question is whether the national curriculum can accommodate a classical approach to education. And the answer is that it can.

This episode is a version of a presentation Difff gave to the Church and State Summit in Brisbane in March 2024.
