We have HUGE news. After well over a decade of campaigning, we’re FINALLY getting Gonski.
This is a win for every member who has supported funding campaigns over the years. Whether you came out to meet trucks and trailers carrying the full funding message, travelled to Canberra with us to talk to politicians, sent emails or postcards, joined social media campaigns or lobbied your state or federal MPs, every single one of you shares the credit for a crucial development in revitalising public education in Australia.
In this episode hear SSTUWA President Matt Jarman talking about this recent state and federal government funding announcement. Under the new deal, WA public schools will finally be funded to the full 100 per cent of the Schooling Resource Standard recommended in the Gonski education funding review in 2011.
