Community as an Anchor, Compass and Map for Thriving Rural Education
Vol. 30 No. 3 (2020)The papers presented in this issue gravitate around notions of community within rural, regional and remote education. These concepts of community are not new to us in education, particularly those of us with an interest in the teaching and learning that happens beyond the city limits. This concept is not new to our readership either, having already devoted attention to community in an earlier issue in 2020 and across the journal’s significant history. What these papers offer here is new perspectives on the priorities being pursued, the programs being developed and the opportunities arising from engaging community in all aspects of rural teaching and learning.

Boarding Schools for rural and remote families: panacea or problem?
Vol. 30 No. 2 (2020)Families living in rural and remote communities often face a difficult choice when their children reach high school age. When there is no local high school, or what is available does not meet their children's educational needs, one option is to send them to boarding school, which are usually located a long way from home. This is not easy for parents or children. The research presented in this special edition highlights some of the dilemmas and challenges, but also the opportunities that arise as a result of these forced choices.

Education in Rural Australia
Vol. 1 No. 1 (1991)Education in Rural Education (vol. 1) is the first incarnation of what has become the Australian and International Journal of Rural Education. These research articles have been retrieved from the archives and digitised to provide insights into rural and remote education in Australia in the early 1990s. Here Ann Morrow raises issues of social justice for policy and practice within rural and remote education. Ted Scott distinguishes between rural and remote and focuses our attention on the needs of the most remote of learning communities. Margaret Clyde focuses on the needs of pre-school learners within rural contexts, and, Robert Baker and John Andrews explore the reasons why parents pursue boarding school options for their children.
