Ep.43: The Libertarian Party: Immigration & Free Speech

Phil Dye — Wed, 23 Apr 2025 00:55:58 GMT

In a recent ‘Philtered’ episode, I interviewed Mark Hornshaw from the The Australian Libertarians on party policies. The last episode for Marking the Role was an excerpt relevant to Education and Family. This episode is an excerpt on Immigration and Free Speech. Leading into the 2025 Federal election, these important issues for teachers and parents were too relevant to let slip.

Ep 42: The Libertarian Party: Education & Family

Phil Dye and Mark Hornshaw — Thu, 27 Mar 2025 02:21:40 GMT

The Libertarian Party is a minor party in Australia, yet their policies show a commonsense approach sadly lacking in the majors. School choice for parents and the return of fact-based teaching would be a welcome relief for most Australian families.

Ep 41 Mini: Schools, Pride & the end of Sanity

Phil Dye — Sun, 09 Jun 2024 08:14:04 GMT

Throughout Australia, schools are creating ‘Queer Clubs’ to push LGBTQA ideas. One school in Victoria has a ‘Queer Club’ for 8-12 year olds. While cult-infected State Departments of Education seemingly don’t care what the majority of parents think, the pushback has well and truly begun. Phil talks to Celine Against the Machine and Maya Tesa about eSafety, censorship, and the parents walking away from public education.

Ep: 39: Saving Australian Schools

Phil Dye — Mon, 08 Apr 2024 07:19:16 GMT

As Australia’s education ranking tanks, a change in the school funding system is well overdue. If Australia is ever going to be the smart country, equal per-child funding, together with greater parental choice must be top of mind. A fair and equal funding model, in addition to UK style ‘Free Schools’, would give parents, teachers and students a place where learning matches family values. They would be a tonic for Australia’s disillusioned teachers and angry parents doing battle against the forces of woke mediocrity.

Ep 38: The Neuroscience of Learning Part 2

Phil Dye — Mon, 05 Feb 2024 05:25:58 GMT

Teacher training spends a great deal of time on diversity, inclusion and equity, yet omits probably the most important component of education: The neuroscience of learning.

This episode takes you through the basic science of learning and retention. It looks at a school exercise program called ‘SPARK’ started in 2008 by Dr John Ratey that continues to change the way many schools in the USA operate.

We then talk to Ben Couchman, a fitness and exercise expert as to how to motivate and keep young people active to improve their school results, lift their mood and keep anxiety away.

Ep 37: Australia's National Curriculum

Phil Dye — Mon, 04 Dec 2023 09:54:54 GMT

Australia’s National Curriculum, designed by the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA), has been described as “shockingly poor” by one media outlet and “a problem” by education consultants. Yet is it as bad as it seems? We ask three experts on curriculum matters if there’s any hope at all for the document that is supposed to guide teachers and set standards for the next generation of Australians.

Ep. 36: The Neuroscience of Learning (part 1)

Phil Dye — Thu, 16 Nov 2023 02:59:33 GMT

The neuroscience of learning has been ignored by teacher training courses in Australia yet is a lynchpin of effective education. One component is Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) that while basic in definition, is harder for teachers to use in practice. We talk with CLT practitioner Sam Sterrett from Scotch College in Western Australia about what CLT means for the teaching profession.

Ep 35: Teaching Generation Alpha

Phil Dye — Wed, 01 Nov 2023 06:05:39 GMT

Generation Alpha are those born between 2010 and 2024. Most students in Australia under year 10 are Generation Alpha. They’ve lived through covid, become addicted to devices and seen two big international conflicts. Yet what defines them and how easy are they to teach? We ask Mark McCrindle from McCrindle Research to outline the do’s and don’ts of teaching Generation Alpha.

Ep 34: Teacher Union Overreach?

Phil Dye — Thu, 19 Oct 2023 05:20:32 GMT

Old style teacher unions are losing members in Australia. While they might represent their members on salary and rights, unions are now telling their members how to vote and what to think on social issues - an overreach not taken well by many teachers. We talk to Edward Schuller from the Teachers Professional Association of Australia about the state of play.

The first in our MINI series. Everything you need to know from Episode 33 in 10 minutes!

Gender ideology is in Australia’s school system and is now taught by classroom teachers or 3rd party providers. Children are learning that they can be born into the wrong body, or that they can transition to the other gender or no gender at all. How can parents protect their children from this confusing and anti-science ideology? We speak to Kat Karena and Rae Clark about the programs and how to ensure your child’s learning matches your family values.

Ep 33: Your children, schools & gender madness

Phil Dye — Wed, 06 Sep 2023 09:34:47 GMT

Gender ideology has infiltrated Australia’s school system and is now part of accredited programs taught by classroom teachers or 3rd party providers. Children are learning that they can be born into the wrong body, or that they can transition to the other gender or no gender at all, alongside topics like consent, respect, dating and resilience. How can parents protect their children from this confusing and anti-science ideology? Is resistance possible?

Episode 32: Universities, quality & teacher training

Phil Dye — Thu, 24 Aug 2023 12:26:44 GMT

Australia’s universities have dropped again in world rankings. Students are unhappy and the Federal Government is looking to overhaul the whole system. Will this be easy and what are the hurdles?

Ep 31: Teachers, gender and the law

Phil Dye — Tue, 08 Aug 2023 05:43:56 GMT

The gradual creep of gender ideology into schools is seeing more and more students consider themselves ‘transgender’. While most teachers will hopefully never confront this, others are scared of losing their job if they utter the wrong pronouns or air their personal views. A teacher in New Zealand has already been sacked for refusing to use preferred pronouns. Australian teachers should be very wary, and very informed.

Ep 30: Direct instruction: It's back to the future for Australian education

Phil Dye — Sun, 23 Jul 2023 07:39:54 GMT

Most older teachers learned explicit and direct instruction (EDI) during teacher training in the 70’s and 80’s. However, many younger teachers have never heard of it. As policymakers grapple with the knowledge decline in Australia’s youth, it’s groundhog day for EDI in the ‘lucky’ country.

Ep 29: The Michaela School

Phil Dye — Mon, 29 May 2023 09:32:38 GMT

Direct instruction teaching hasn’t been popular with education departments or teacher training institutions in Australia, but the tide is turning. The Michaela School in the UK is a leading example of how setting clear expectations, strong boundaries and solid principles of teaching can be of enormous benefit. The results are happy students, dedicated teachers and top academic performance. We interview Katharine Birbalsingh, the Principal.

Episode 24

Phil Dye — Mon, 13 Mar 2023 05:06:00 GMT

Home schooling is on the rise in Australia and the world. Some parents just want to meet their children's individual needs. Others want their children out of a classroom where teachers struggle to give their best to every student due to the vast range of student abilities in the one room. Whatever the reason, the sector provides opportunities for both parents and teachers seeking a change.

Phil Dye — Wed, 09 Nov 2022 08:00:23 GMT

Gender Dysphoria is increasingly prevalent in Australian schools with one Sydney school having 50% of students openly 'transitioning'. Yet is this a legitimate health problem to be treated with puberty blockers, hormones and surgery, or the result of childhood trauma, and parents who can't say no.

Episode 7: Inclusive Education: The uncomfortabe discussion we had to have

Phil Dye — Wed, 15 Jun 2022 22:28:58 GMT

Teachers accept inclusive education when it comes to race, religion, gender, sexual identity or belief. Disability inclusion is also fine as most students with a disability can be taught in mainstream schools. However, when a student's disability disrupts the education of others, generates behavior problems or creates an unsafe environment for other students and staff, it's time to re-evaluate. This discussion is uncomfortable, yet globally important.
