Case study - Gulagambone 1891-1965

Introduction

The case studies provide a closer examination of the complex local and personal implications of some of the policies, prejudices and politics mentioned in the main timeline.

While some details are specific to the local situations, these chronologies illuminate disputes which occurred across the state in many schools. Issues such as Aboriginal peoples’ access to public education, their experiences of segregated schools, racism, protests and later of combined education are explored here.
