Across Australia, teachers and education support staff in public schools are giving 100% for their students. But they need to be backed by governments with the resources needed to provide high-quality teaching and learning for their students.
Right now, only 1.3 % of public schools are at 100% of the Schooling Resource Standard (SRS) - the minimum funding level.
Fixing this is urgent, and the only way to ensure every child has the support they need to succeed.
This year the Albanese Government is negotiating new school funding agreements with each state and territory. We need your help to make sure that these agreements deliver full funding for public schools, because it’s the best investment that Australia can make for the future of public education.
So, this week, we’re turning up the pressure on the Prime Minister. Join in here.
Every day this week we will be using different online tools to call on the Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to make sure that public schools are fully funded.
Whether it’s sharing your story, posting on social media, or sending an email – your voice will help convince the PM to invest in our future by fully funding public schools.
