Julia Gillard has said that ''parents go to hell and back'' trying to get information about schools. Hence, the My Schools website. It made me wonder who Julia's been hanging around with.
To me, hell is a place of earthquakes, bushfires, tsunamis and volcanic eruptions, and that's just the natural catastrophes. Don't get me started on the man-made ones. Trying to find out the curriculum at Cowra High School or the NAPLAN results of Beecroft Primary School or whether there's any bullying at Tara School for Girls … I can't imagine these missions qualify as trips to hell.
But how do parents get really useful information about schools, without risking torture, anguish and despair?
