Ollis: " An art school is only as good as its teachers" ( about the National Art School NAS )

This often repeated quote from the head of NAS: hasn't he got it the wrong way around? A famous artist who was a former NAS student said " A school is only as good as its students": you would think that this is what the head of an educational institution would believe. This sycophantic attitude says a lot about the managements beliefs about students as second class and second rate in the school. It also says a lot about what the management and staff are really fighting for: to protect their little island of privilege. Management at NAS needs to be replaced to stop nepatism and possible misappropriation of taxpayer funds: anyone seen the staff and management-only compound within the school?
