Understanding Educational Opportunities and Outcomes: An Atlas of South Australia

This project has been funded by the SA Department of Education and Children's Services as a joint undertaking between The Smith Family and PHIDU. It focuses on learning and development, and the differences in education outcomes across communities in South Australia that need to be addressed.  It is hoped that the report and additional data on the World Wide Web will highlight communities and groups within the populations where action  is needed to improve learning and development outcomes.

The links below provide access to the online component of the report, which has been set up as a temporary site to allow review and comment of the online aspects of the atlas.

Please review the 'Notes' document for indicators in your area of interest/ expertise - these can be accessed by clicking on the 'page' icon adjacent to the indicator name under the 'Data' button, once you have clicked on the link to maps.
