Since the 1960s, Australian school have seen the following changes:
- Slates have been replaced by paper and pencils.
- Paper and pencils have been replaced by laptop computers.
- Chalkboards have been replaced by whiteboards and even, in some cases, Interactive whiteboards.
- Technological advances are incorporated more into lessons, in regard to lesson plans, preparation and presentation.
- Corporal punishment has been abolished (in theory, at least) from all government-run schools and many private schools.
- Classes are smaller.
- Teacher aides have been introduced.
- There has been more integration of the physically and mentally disabled into mainstream schools.
- Buildings are modern and often air-conditioned.
- There has been some separation into "Junior, Middle and Senior" schools.
- Education syllabi have been altered to allow for the greater variety of jobs now available, and the fact that new technology constantly creates new jobs.
- Educational theory has moved away from the idea of filling children's heads with knowledge, and instead is geared more towards teaching children how to analyse and think, and how to support what they believe. It is more skills-based rather than knowledge-based.
