Prime Minister Julia Gillard's goal of Australia having one of the top five schooling systems in the world by 2025 has been thrown into doubt after the nation received disastrous results in the latest international reading, maths and science tests.
"Australian children were beaten by students from 26 countries in year four reading in the 2011 Progress in International Reading Literacy Study."
PM - While the education system and the government stumble into action over this one, how many parent are going to sit around and not read to/with their children? That shared time reading together is valuable in helping kids achieve good reading habits. So turn the TV off and say "let's read!" Nurture a love of words. :-)
