About this episode
According to David Gillespie, the Australian education system has never been in a worse state. And this is not some unsubstantiated claim; he walks us through the current reality of education in, not only Australia, but also around the world, and some of the data will fascinate you. We also talk about the charity he created to support and empower Aussie kids to better academic experiences and outcomes. It's called freeschool.org.au and as the name suggests, it's a totally free resource for Australian students, complete with 8,500 (plus) videos of Australian teachers, teaching current Australian curriculums. Oh, and he also tells us how to spot a Psychopathic School Principal (not even kidding). Enjoy.
