- Description
- The “Seconded Teachers from Greece Scheme” (STGS)
has been operating in Australia since 1977. Its concern has been
with the maintenance and promotion of the Greek language and
culture through the secondment of teachers and the supply of
material resources from Greece. However, there has been no
substantial research to date on its progress in Western Australia
(WA). The qualitative study that was undertaken for the degree of
Doctor of Education from the University of Western Australia aimed
to address this deficit. Specifically, the study aimed to generate
theory regarding how the key stakeholders “dealt with” the
curriculum for teaching Greek as a second language in WA under the
STGS. It is this theory that will be the main focus of this paper.
Mention will also be made of the implications of the study for the
development of policy and practice, as well as for future
research.
