Some useful perspectives when considering selective schools for your children. "Ideally, schools are microcosms of society, where children learn everyday multiculturalism in an organic way," Are selective schools racially skewed? If yes, will it represent the broader Australian society? If not, what would be the developmental impacts on students (such as on creativity, wisdom, resilience, critical thinking etc. )? How do competition, affordability and fairness in relation to education relate to this situation?
