点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to investigate how Indigenous children can grow up educationally strong. Using data from the Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children, the project plans to develop a statistically robust picture of how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children do attain educational achievement despite adverse life circumstances. The project seeks to provide a picture of the educational experience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children across time, different locations (urban, regional, remote) and life circumstances. It plans to map how children achieve strong education regardless of disadvantage and uses Indigenous and Western concepts of educational attainment and resilience to frame its analyses. The project expects to inform policy interventions that will maximise children's educational life chances.
