Millions of Australians have attended public schools, and we know first-hand the positive impact that teachers and education support staff have had on our lives.  

But right now, our world-class public system needs your support.  Only 1.3 % of public schools are at the minimum funding benchmark agreed to by governments. In public schools across the nation, teachers and students are giving 100% every day but they need to be backed by governments with full funding.  

The 23rd of May is Public Education Day and we want to celebrate Australia’s incredible public schools as we call on the Albanese Government to fully fund public education by delivering a minimum of with 100% of the Schooling Resource Standard (SRS).

Post on your preferred social media platform with the hashtag #ProudToBePublic to show your public school pride and help win full funding for Australia's public school teachers and students.
