Colonial foundations of education
The first Australian educational period was dominated by a convicted society's social and
ethical needs which began to form a free minority in 1810. Conversion and moral restraint are
problems as an exiled adult society. The Anglican Church, therefore, provided Reverend Richard
Johnson, the first colonial chaplain schoolmaster. His educational efforts included sermons and
lectures in the Bible, literature from the first flood and a range of moral and biblical texts. He
also supervised the first hut schools, one in 1789 in Sydney and two years afterward in
Parramatta (Vass, 2012).
No practical model was available outside of the United Kingdom to fund or coordinate
religion. Glebes (400 acres for ministerial support and 200 for a schoolmaster) have therefore
been developed in each center for growth. Earlier, in the sense of an effort to extend to Australia
the hegemony of Anglicans in England by depriving it of a tenth of all surveyed land, the Church
and School Corporation established under Thomas Hobbes Scott in 1825 was formalized in that
agreement. The problem with the model was that most lands were either uncertain or, if settled,
unregulated, leaving the finances behind population growth and education demand.
