Gender Equity: A Framework for Australian Schools
This report was endorsed by Ministers at the 5th MCEETYA Meeting (Brisbane, 1996). The Framework was prepared by a MCEETYA Taskforce responsible for providing advice to enable improved educational outcomes for girls and boys in Australian schools. The Framework is designed for use by schools and systems, education practitioners, parents and school communities. It builds on the work already undertaken through the National Policy for the Education of Girls in Australian Schools and the National Action Plan for the Education of Girls 1993-97.
