Smithson, Alan January 1997 (has links)
Bibliography: leaves 387-404. / xix, 404 leaves ; 30 cm. / Title page, contents and abstract only. The complete thesis in print form is available from the University Library. / South Australia is unique amongst Australian States insofar as s82(1) of the Education Act 1972 vests the director-General of Education, rather than the minister of Education, with de jure control of State school curriculum. This locus of control is at odds with the well-established democratic convention that Ministers control the directive policy components of their portfolios. This thesis describes how this mode of curriculum control came about, its nature and implications, and mounts a challenge to its legitimacy.
