I can say without reservation that the community’s enthusiasm for My School has been overwhelming. The latest figures from the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority show that the website has had 1.4 million visits and 157 million hits since its launch. It is a shame that the opposition do not support this fantastic initiative. They are divided on My School, as they are on everything else. The Leader of the Opposition admits that the parents of this country deserve this information, but the education spokesman for the opposition has called the website a white elephant.
