Funded Activity Summary

Parent and community relations in Australian schooling, 1940s-2010s: expertise and authority, reform and crisis. This project undertakes the first national history of parent-school-community relations in Australia. Examining public, Catholic and independent school sectors, it combines a cultural history of transformations in school parenting with a policy history of school-community engagement, over a period characterised by contestations between schools and parents about whose expertise and authority prevails. By documenting the history of the “good” educational parent and the “good” community-aware school and tracking historical and contemporary shifts and variations in the meanings of ‘community’ and ‘parent’, this project aims to inform current policy and practice in parent involvement, community engagement and public school devolution.
