Purpose Westbrook Farm Home for Boys in Queensland, Australia, existed in various forms for over 100 years. As such, it offers a valuable window into Australian approaches to managing and reforming boys through the twentieth century. The purpose of this paper is to examine its approach to reforming teenage boys during a period marked by a mass escape in 1961. It argues that the reformatory education initially intended was no longer tenable during this moment in history, and that this period represents a breakdown of that approach. Design/methodology/approach This paper draws on material including newspaper reports, memoirs, and the report of an inquiry into an escape by inmates in 1961. These are analysed in order to construct a picture of the type of reformatory education during this period and the public and official responses to this. Findings Westbrook Farm Home for Boys was, during this period, an institution attempting to provide a reformatory education at a historical moment when such an education was no longer viewed as appropriate means of addressing the criminal behaviour of youths. This, combined with the leadership of a domineering figure in Superintendent Roy Golledge, led to a culture of abuse, rather than education. The uncovering of this culture was a pivotal moment in the transition of Westbrook into an institution explicitly dealing with criminal youths. Originality/value No academic work relating to this moment in Westbrook’s history has been previously published.

改革性教育的分解:记住威斯布鲁克

目的位于澳大利亚昆士兰州的威斯布鲁克男孩农场之家以各种形式存在超过100年。因此,它为进入20世纪澳大利亚管理和改革男孩的方法提供了宝贵的窗口。本文的目的是考察其在1961年大规模逃亡期间改造少年的方法。该研究认为,最初打算进行的改造教育在历史上此刻不再成立,并且这一时期代表了一种崩溃。这种方法。设计/方法/方法本文采用的材料包括报纸报道,回忆录和1961年囚犯对逃逸的调查报告。对这些资料进行分析,以期了解这段时期的改革教育类型以及公众和官方对此的回应。结果在此期间,威斯布鲁克农场男孩之家曾是一家试图提供改革教育的机构,当时这种教育不再被视为解决青少年犯罪行为的适当手段。再加上Roy Golledge院长的一个霸气人物的领导,导致了一种虐待文化,而不是教育文化。这种文化的发现是威斯布鲁克向明确处理犯罪青年的机构过渡的关键时刻。原创性/价值此前尚未发表与威斯布鲁克历史上有关这一刻的学术著作。在一个历史时刻试图提供改良教育的机构,而这种教育不再被视为解决青少年犯罪行为的适当手段。再加上Roy Golledge院长的一个霸气人物的领导,导致了一种虐待文化,而不是教育文化。这种文化的发现是威斯布鲁克向明确处理犯罪青年的机构过渡的关键时刻。原创性/价值此前尚未发表与威斯布鲁克历史上有关这一刻的学术著作。在一个历史时刻试图提供改良教育的机构,而这种教育不再被视为解决青少年犯罪行为的适当手段。再加上Roy Golledge院长的一个霸气人物的领导,导致了一种虐待文化,而不是教育文化。这种文化的发现是威斯布鲁克向明确处理犯罪青年的机构过渡的关键时刻。原创性/价值此前尚未发表与威斯布鲁克历史上有关这一刻的学术著作。这种文化的发现是威斯布鲁克向明确处理犯罪青年的机构过渡的关键时刻。原创性/价值此前尚未发表与威斯布鲁克历史上有关这一刻的学术著作。这种文化的发现是威斯布鲁克向明确处理犯罪青年的机构过渡的关键时刻。原创性/价值此前尚未发表与威斯布鲁克历史上有关这一刻的学术著作。
