Abstract

The 2014 Wilson review of Indigenous Education in the Northern Territory recommended boarding school models as the preferred secondary education option for very remote Aboriginal students. This study considers boarding uptake by Aboriginal students from the Central Land Council region of the Northern Territory. An examination of boarding programs available to Aboriginal students in this region found that scholarship access is largely determined by socioeducational advantage and the perceived social stability of the family and student. To increase access and participation in boarding, more flexible funding assistance programs are needed. An expanded role for brokering could also increase retention and completion rates. Ultimately, more investment is also required in remote community schools, and in the development of ‘both ways’ capital if the social and educational aspirations of young Aboriginal students and their families in this region are to be realised through a boarding school model.
绘制北领地中央土地委员会地区土著学生寄宿学校机会图
2014年威尔逊对北领地土著教育的审查建议,寄宿学校模式是偏远土著学生的首选中等教育模式。这项研究考虑了来自北领地中央土地委员会地区的土著学生的寄宿情况。对该地区土著学生可获得的寄宿项目进行的审查发现,获得奖学金在很大程度上取决于社会教育优势以及家庭和学生的社会稳定性。为了增加寄宿的机会和参与度,需要更灵活的资助援助计划。扩大中介机构的作用也可以提高保留率和完成率。最终,如果要通过寄宿学校模式实现该地区年轻土著学生及其家庭的社会和教育愿望,还需要对偏远社区学校和“双向”资本的开发进行更多投资。

期刊介绍: Published in association with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies Unit, The University of Queensland, the Australian Journal of Indigenous Education is an internationally refereed journal which publishes papers and reports on the theory, method, and practice of Indigenous education. The journal welcomes articles that ground theoretical reflections and discussions in qualitative and quantitative studies, as well as examples of best practice with a focus on Indigenous education. While AJIE has a particular focus on Indigenous education in Australia and Oceania, research which explores educational contexts and experiences around the globe are welcome. AJIE seeks to foster debate between researchers, government, and community groups on the shifting paradigms, problems, and practical outcomes of Indigenous education.
