[edit] Scope
The scope of this project is revolved around handling all articles related to Education in Australia. Past experiences from Wikiproject Education in Canada tell us that contributors are more inclined to work on K-12 school articles.
WP EiA maintains and improves articles within the Education in Australia category structure:

[edit] Goals
[edit] General goals
- To coordinate and improve articles related to Education in Australia.
- To foster collaboration between participants of this project.
- To establish appropriate linkages with WikiProject Education and WikiProject Australia.
- To work collaboratively with other wikiprojects in order to achieve joint goals.
[edit] Specific goals

[edit] Guidelines
To keep to the guidelines as designated in Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Guide
[edit] Naming conventions
In addition to WP:NC(S), participants should adhere to these guidelines when creating/moving Australian education-related articles.
[edit] Names of schools
- Generally, abbreviations should be expanded to the school's full name. To the right are some examples of common abbreviations. For example, Kalamunda Senior High School should be used in place of Kalamunda SHS. In addition to common abbreviations, lesser-known abbreviations should not be used, e.g. University of Western Australia rather than UWA.
- When there are abbreviations in a school's name (for example A. Y. Jackson Secondary School), full stops ('periods') must be used after each letter.

- Less serious issues
- Public and private education in Australia - Found this article tagged as needing immediate attention. Seems to be listed due to lack of sourced material. Is classed as of mid importance. Not sure how this would be classed for this Project as it hasnt yet been tagged. Boylo (talk) 09:14, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
