The West Australia Subscription - WA’s Top 50 Schools: Full List Revealed

LRandomBob84 on 03/09/2019 - 12:45

I am wondering if anyone on here has a subscription to The West Australian Online and could possibly 'print' to pdf or anything else the article about how they rated and the list of the top 50 schools as they have rated them.
Its a new article about a week old.

So i purchased the West Australian news paper on the day that they were supposed to running the article. I was expecting a small lift out like they usually do, but it was only two pages with everything basically saying go online and pay for subscription to read this. I was WTF, i just purchased the paper to read this and now your asking me to pay again to read this… So angry at how they have done the dodgy.
Looked as subscribing, but minimum term is 4 weeks at a price of $28. thought if i can sign up for a week not too bad.
So does anyone have a subscription that they can use to access?

    This won't help OP get the list, but if this list is exclusive to that paper / news site, and not available anywhere else at all, I would question the veracity of the listing itself.
    On what basis is the news site making these gradings?

    Obviously read any article about top schools with a grain of salt. Even the official results published.
    You could have a school that has 1 student doing ATR and the schools ranking is dictated by that 1 student.
    This article has some info about ranking the price of the suburb entry for public schools(house prices) and private schools fees. How they use that and how much ranking it has on the overall score i am not sure, but would like to read the article to gain a better understanding of the ranking system…

    It will just be the naplan results converted to subscribe and click bait.

    Go look at the raw scores instead.

    Go to your local public library and use their subscription.

    Some libraries will require you to be a member.

      I didn't know they have subscriptions. I looked around a little, and it seems they have access to the online archive, which is just a saved copy of the printed edition. I couldn't find anything about the online content subscription. Where did you get this information from out of curiosity?

        I go to my library for things that cost money like subscription to Choice magazine.
