Abstract:
This study arose out of an experience with an amalgamation of two high schools in the ACT in the early 1990s. The amalgamation process took two and a half years from the time the decision was made to close one of the schools until the new school was consolidated on one site. The change processes impacted on many areas of teachers' work and this, combined with the emotional aspects of being in a school which was closing, flagged teacher morale as an issue requiring attention. The study involved seeking responses to a questionnaire and interviewing teachers involved in the amalgamation. The inte

The spread of Covid-19 led to social restrictions of various kinds, of which closing schools was one. This paper studies the effect of school closures on parental labor supply.
