We're pretty excited that one of our #FairFundingVans has made its way to Tasmania! to spread the word about #FairFundingNow and the importance of fairly funding public schools.
The next 12 weeks are critical to the future of public education. We're ready to have thousands of conversations with teachers, support staff, parents & the wider community about how important the federal election is for preschools, public schools & public TAFE. #AEUFedConf
Teachers in Forde want #FairFundingNow so they can support their students and provide them with the best possible educational resources and facilities. #FairFundingVans
“We welcome Labor’s commitment to support TAFE by guaranteeing a minimum two thirds of government funding to the public TAFE system, and we welcome the Greens commitment to guarantee 100% of funding to TAFE” #StopTAFEcuts#AEUFedConf
“Under the Morrison government Australia ranks 23rd in spending on Early Childhood Education as a percentage of GDP, well below the OECD average” #AEUFedConf#PreschoolFundingNow
“Labor’s commitment to an immediate injection of $3.3 billion into public schools in the first three years of government is especially welcome, & a game changer for schools that have been waiting for these funds” #AEUFedConf#FairFundingNow @billshortenmp @tanya_plibersek
So, despite all the millions and millions and millions of public & private money showered on Australian private schools, it’s a teacher from underfunded Rooty Hill High who makes world’s top ten. Save your money people. Local public schools rock.
