Finnish education guru Pasi Sahlberg: treat primary school teachers like doctors

With Prime Minister Julia Gillard’s promise to make Australia one of the best five performing countries for education in the world, what can we learn from the Scandinavians? One answer might be more simple than we think: elevate teachers to the same social and professional status we hold doctors and other people with whom we trust with vital aspects of our health and well-being.

Values Centred Schools

The National Framework for Values Education in Australian Schools asserts that effective values education 'occurs in partnership with students, staff, families and the school community as part of a whole school approach' and 'articulates the values of the school community and applies these consistently in the practices of the school'. The Values-centred Schools guide is based on these principles. Like a good travel guide, this resource is not prescriptive. It supports a whole school approach to values education, describes some highlights and features to watch out for in implementing a whole school approach, has expert recommendations, offers some stories from school practice, connects to other useful resources, and provides practical advice and tips for the journey.
