Working with Students of Refugee Backgrounds and Their Families in New South Wales Public Schools This study was undertaken for the NSW Teachers Federation as part of their centenary year. It involved research into the needs of students of refugee backgrounds and their families and how best to support teachers in NSW public schools in meeting these needs. The research included interviews and focus groups with executive staff and teachers, students with and without refugee backgrounds and the parents or carers of students of refugee backgrounds in 10 public schools. These schools included primary schools, high schools and Intensive English Centres (IECs) in Sydney and regional locations in NSW, with high and low populations of students of refugee backgrounds and varying numbers of students with a language background other than English (LBOTE) among their broader populations.

Compile the current evidence for the social and financial benefits of housing cooperatives, to develop a framework to assess this in Australia; and, 2. Identify preliminary issues regarding the growth and diversification of housing cooperatives in Australia.
