Until quite recently there has been a dearth of information about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' access to, participation in, and outcomes from education. This is the final report of the Reference Group which has undertaken the National Review of Education for Aboriginal Peoples and Torres Strait Islanders. The Review attempts to discuss, analyse and make recommendations based on written and spoken submissions and consultations. In summary, it did two main things: it looked back to examine what has happened up to the present, and assessed what has and has not worked in education for Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders; it looked forward to suggest ways to improve how things are done, and new action to further improve Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ experience of education.
