We could link to any of the following, perhaps (e.g. where terms like 'selective' come up in the UI, we could help explain them via a link elsewhere).

school types: http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/gotoschool/types/centralschools.php

selective info: http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/learning/k-6assessments/shsplacement/index.php

opportunity class info: http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/learning/k-6assessments/ocplacement.php

enrolment info (general, preschool, primary, high school, distance): http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/gotoschool/enrolment/index.php http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/rde/distanceedu/howtoenrol/index.php

information access: http://www.dec.nsw.gov.au/about-us/information-access

maybe an overview: "With more than 2,200 State locations, around 750,000 students attend NSW public schools - including preschools, primary schools, central schools, high schools, colleges and specialist schools." http://www.dec.nsw.gov.au/about-us/key-people/public-schools-nsw

Is there a current version of this? http://www.nslhd.health.nsw.gov.au/Services/Carer/resourcesforcarers/Documents/Who%27s%20going%20to%20teach%20my%20child.pdf

Tagging 'help wanted' for now, in case anyone like @Lilith-Palmer or @pixelhappy1 have ideas about how/where to include this stuff.

Added 'school types: http://www.schools.nsw.edu.au/gotoschool/types/centralschools.php' above so we can close #117

@Lilith-Palmer said this info may be included in a launch page / wrapper / sidebar etc for the app, but probably doesn't need to be included in the app directly right now. Closing.
