McSchools

AdelaideNow... Principals to decide on McPartnerships
"This is where businesses, where industries, want to do more for the children. It is not an opportunity for businesses to use this as an opportunity to lever their products.


And yet Mr. Brumby is purported to be saying it wouldn't be a plank for promoting corporate interests? Did he say that? Plank??? Okay, so if it's not a platform for business interests but an opportunity to lever their products...and then the corporate funding of state schools...it surely is a great way to influence future consumers and govern curriculum so it suits business and industry? The education vs vocational training argument. I gather the schools will be run by Hamburslars.
