How to Fix a Broken Education System

It’s not lions, tigers, and bears, but the yellow brick road is paved with woes. From the nation-wide teacher shortage to student behaviour and pay stagnation, the system isn’t working. There’s enough blame to share between elected officials, parents, and even teachers sometimes – but it’s the students who are paying the price of a centralised system.

Money grabbing government departments and politically aligned unions have their hands out and pockets filled. While teachers and principals are trapped under curriculum requirements, student discipline, and staffing issues. When these problems persist for too long, teachers are burning out and leaving the profession all together.

It’s an outcome we can’t afford and we need a better solution immediately. We know how to fix these issues and drive better outcomes. Meet Go Local – a decentralised approach to education that puts teachers back in the driver’s seat with more control and accountability, plus more practical training and better pay.
