The eighth paper in the Indigenous Population Project 2011 Census Papers series has been released. 'School Education' by Dr Nicholas Biddle is the second in the series exploring issues around education. Using data from the two most recent censuses, the Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth (LSAY) and the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC), this paper provides an up-to-date picture of the schooling experience of Indigenous children.
