Nothing to do on Tuesday night?

The ABC brings word that the Save Our Schools campaign has conceded the end of the beginning, and that there’s not much more school saving to be done.

But they’ve had so much fun together they’re going to push on with some new projects:

We think it’s no longer a question of being an organisation that’s just devoted to saving the neighbourhood school and its role in public education, but to cite the neglect and failures of government policies as they relate to public education and the significant inequity in education that exists in Australia and the ACT

Nope. There’s a difference between trying to save schools that have already closed, and trying to improve the standard of public education in general.

Reminds me of those Sydney Olympics volunteers still wearing their uniforms a year after the closing ceremony.

At least this guy is actually trying to improve things, rather than just sitting on his arse and whingeing about how other people should be doing more for public education.

SOS party at the next ACT election?

We moved on Trevor. Barr came out of it as little more than a gutless ‘Yes Man’, the Education Department were recognised for the incompetent time serving public servants they are, the teachers copped the rough end of parents anger which was grossly unfair and we all moved on. This is now nothing than more than Trevor’s personal Hobby Horse.
