Fitzpatrick, Aileen (1898 - 1974) |
|
|
|
| Community worker and Teacher | |
| Born: 17 August 1898 Warialda, New South Wales, Australia. Died: 23 June 1974 Eastwood, New South Wales, Australia. | |
| Aileen Fitzpatrick commenced her working life as a secondary school teacher in New South Wales. An interest in social work led to her becoming the director of the Board of Social Study and Training, New South Wales. Questions about the standard of the courses offered and the quality of the teaching staff resulted in withdrawal of support and eventually Fitzpatrick's resignation. She later worked with migrants and refugees, but this was also thwarted by the lack of formal qualifications of Fitzpatrick and her staff, once again resulting in her resignation. |
