about

Then Education Minister, Julia Gillard, set up high stakes national testing in schools. The aim was to find out where the need was and to fund it accordingly. Until the independent and religious schools kicked up a stink about the prospect of losing funding. Furthermore, this kind of testing has always been questionable - what does it really achieve?

lyrics

Education

Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report – you’re failing the nation
Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report…

Rank ‘em up here, rank ‘em down there
Set up for failure, do you even care?
Put ‘em on the site, vultures will attack
All those league tables; a burden on your back!

Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report – you’re failing the nation
Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report…

Promising the money, cashin’ in the cow
Privately they’re swimming, how can that be fair?
Broke a promise here, broken promise there,
Go ahead and quote me, that’s not fucking fair!

Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report – you’re failing the nation
Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report…

Follow a leader, why would you follow an arse?
Follow a leader, why the hell would you follow an arse?!

Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report – you’re failing the nation
Education – I don’t think so
Here’s your report…

about

The One Twos Melbourne, Australia

The One Twos knock out, old school inspired punk, with slaps of garage and dashes of reggae. All swagger and no frills, the music is served up with gritty guitar, plucky bass and thumping drums and acidic vocals – is anything else really needed? Lyrically, “protest punk” would be a fair description for the band’s songs. ... more
