Fully funding public schools is essential to make Australia’s schooling system stronger and fairer – ensuring every child’s needs are met. As union members, we can’t tolerate a society where only 1.3% of public schools meet the Schooling Resource Standard, compared to 98% of private schools.

"A new study from the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools finds that, across the country, enrollment in traditional district schools is down 3% (1.5 million students) while enrollment in public charter schools is up 9% (300,000 students). Many people thought the flight from district schools was a pandemic anomaly and that students would return. They didn’t."

Again, we call for sectors and governments to work together to address challenges like funding classrooms and facilities. Reports that distort the facts don’t help students and families. Independent school parents and communities contribute 86% of their capital works budgets nationally, about six per cent comes from the Commonwealth Government and eight per cent from State and Territory Governments. Independent schools educate one in six Australian students, and the vast majority receive no government funding at all for capital expenditure.
Independent Schools Australia (ISA) has called for a national conversation on increased funding and support for capital works in all schools to improve student outcomes and to provide a safe environment. https://lnkd.in/dCgq8jpS

The disadvantage gap at 16 is a stark illustration of the problem we have with social justice in England. All parties need to commit to continuing and strengthening the GCSE resit policy, to support students whose grade at 16 reflects only a lack of opportunity, NOT a lack of potential. Good to see The Sutton Trust recommending extending the Pupil Premium to post-16. However, colleges sadly forgotten in the other recommendations here, given they are the providers actually closing the gap post-16. Why advocate for the National Tuition Programme (schools) and not Tuition Fund (colleges)? Why "incentivise the best teachers to work in the most disadvantaged schools" and not colleges with their high-disadvantage cohorts?
🚨 We want all parties to set out a long-term, national strategy to bring a renewed focus to closing the attainment gap between the most and least disadvantaged pupils. The gap in outcomes between the most and least disadvantaged pupils opens up early on, and widens as pupils progress through school. Action is needed to close the gap 👇 https://buff.ly/3wzxIVV
