Gabbie Stroud on Australia’s education system

Readings Hawthorn, Woiwurrung Country, 687 Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn, Victoria, 3122

Gabbie Stroud’s groundbreaking essay ‘Teaching Australia’ in the February 2016 Griffith Review outlined her experiences of Naplan and provoked a huge response from former and current teachers around the world. That essay lifted the lid on a scandal that is yet to properly break – that our education system is unfair to our children and destroying their teachers.

In Teacher, a powerful memoir inspired by her original essay, Stroud tells the full story: how she came to teaching, what makes a great teacher, what our kids need from their teachers, and what it was that finally broke her.
