Parents Victoria is one of 31 organisations that have joined the Australian Education Union (AEU) to write to Opposition Leader Peter Dutton, urging him to support the public school funding agreements recently announced by the Albanese Government.
The open letter, published in The Australian last week, calls on Peter Dutton to give bipartisan support to the Albanese Government’s commitment to lift the federal share of public school funding to 25% of the Schooling Resource Standard (SRS) – the amount needed for every child to succeed no matter their circumstances.
We’d like to add this question: Mr Dutton, will your party support the Prime Minister’s commitment to fully fund all Australian public schools or will you do better and deliver the funding before 2034?
