It seems important to me that an accurate account of white/Aboriginal contact be taught in Australian history courses in the schools. As well, it seems essential that all school children be taught about the viability of Aboriginal society prior to European settlement. For those intending to be teachers, a knowledge of the education offered Aboriginal people in the past is important. See :Google Scholar
