“There should be no mystery about how our children are learning” - Julia Gillard

A teacher sits with a student as she’s reading a new book. The child is learning new words, and stringing sentences together. In another classroom, students are repeating their times tables and getting their heads around maths puzzles. In schools around the world, children’s minds are developing and teachers are guiding their path. But there is still work to be done in ensuring all children have access to quality education.

In her article for Guardian Australia former Prime Minister Julia Gillard explores the fact there are enormous gaps in our understanding of how well children are learning around the world. “There should be no mystery about how our children are learning,” she writes. The importance of testing shouldn't be underestimated when it comes to providing all children quality education.
