Monday’s Q&A takes a look at our schooling system and ask: Is it up to scratch?

Are Aussie kids getting the education they need? Our global education ranking has plunged , our students’ results in reading, maths and science are in serious decline, and a toxic culture of sexism and bullying persists in too many of our high schools.

Joining Hamish MacDonald live from the ABC Studios in Sydney:

Tanya Plibersek, Shadow Minister for Education
Adrian Piccoli, Director, Gonski Institute and former Deputy Leader, NSW Nationals
Eddie Woo, High School Maths Teacher and Internet Sensation
John Collier, Principal, St Andrew’s Cathedral School Sydney
Vy Tran, Year 12 Student at Mac.Robertson High School Melbourne

9:35pm Monday on ABC.

  1. 2 schools in my regional tow public and catholic only one affords it’s Year 12 students bonus points and yet the catholic school has less resources and subjects on offer. How is this a sensible option? Same disadvantage, same behavioural issues and disadvantage of a regional town that is dying a slow death in regional south Australia
