Foreign language learning and secondary schools in the Australian Capital Territory

This study examines trends over the past decade in
the learning of foreign languages in schools, tertiary
institutions, adult classes and ethnic schools in the
A.C.T.
It reports results of a survey of the attitudes
towards learning foreign languages of secondary
language teachers and samples of students and
parents from two high schools and two secondary
colleges in Canberra.
The introduction of the new system of education in
Canberra in 1976 has had an impact on foreign
language learning in schools. This is examined.
Reasons are offered for the trends observed and
future directions for language teaching in the A.C.T.
are suggested.
