I’m at the office today, so I can’t take time out to post this story. Basically, McDonald’s is providing the MathsOnline service to all secondary students, free of charge. Some people are apparently unhappy about this.

Education Minister Julia Gillard has commended the firm, but state Opposition education spokesman, Adrian Piccoli, said parents expected education to be independent of big business.

No, Adrian. Parents need government out of education. The “Adrian Piccoli” in this article is the Liberal Party’s shadow education minister [in NSW]… I think the preceding paragraph says all it needs to about where the Liberal party now stands on these issues. At this rate, they may just snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Hello Fleeced. Haven’t spoken to you in ages.

Don’t you just love how they scare you about big business whenever someone mentions going towards a private direction?

A lot of private schools I know of tend to actually be sole proprietorships, partnerships or other forms of small private ownership.

Today’s the eduction is become the big industry. Many Private school earn a lot of money by this. Now the situation is going to be critical for the students, in government school there is no proper education system while the private school begs a lot of money for the education.
Thanks,
