[English] SBS World News poll on a National Curriculum!

English teachers,

The SBS poll so far is overwhelmingly in favour of a national
curriculum!  Orwellian prospect.  Even George Bush hasn't gone that far.
 How ironic that CHOICE is such a byword and cliche for politicians, but
not when it comes to education, schools and teachers.There's still time
to respond:

I received some emails from the 'Look Both Ways' distributor and
they're 
putting subtitles onto the next production run.  Unfortunately there's
no 
date on that, but hopefully I can get a copy before we need it in Term
3.
I have a PDF study guide available, which I got last year.  I don't
want to 
attach it to the circulation list, but if anyone wants it, I'm happy to

email it to you individually.  Just send me your email address.
I also downloaded a copy of the William McInnes 'Australian Story'
episode 
which features the film and Sarah as well, which anyone is welcome to.
Cheers,
joe
