The Liberal Party in NSW was recently in receipt of my brickbat about the failure of the Coalition to trim the school syllabus of such error ridden topics as listed in this article. NSW education Minister Sarah Mitchell of the NP is totally weak as was her predesessor. Only Mark Latham of One Nation is raising the alarm from his position in the NSW upper house.
Federally the Education Minister acknowledges a problem but takes no action. Maybe the resurgent Liberal Democratic Party [prominent former LP conservative John Ruddick is standing for election in Manly] will provide the catalyst for reform.
