THREAD:NSW is spending $600mil less per year on public schools than intended under the original Gonski... Public schools are also denied access to a $1.9Bill Federal private school capital fund leading to this... Monte Sant' Angelo Mercy College “one of the Best Bathrooms of '18”
Newington College. 8 tennis, 6 basketball & 3 volleyball courts. 17 cricket wickets, 3 rugby fields, a boat shed, fencing & table tennis facility, gym & Olympic pool. Newington Public: NO access to Fed Capital Grants. Demountables. #EverySchoolEveryChild
Concord High School teachers walked off the job earlier this year because they can’t cover classes. Last year, 2km down the road, Rosebank College got $2mill from Morrison for new classrooms. #EverySchoolEveryChild

And while the public schools of NSW are facing a large and growing shortage of teachers the NSW Government still feeds these schools $1.5 billion dollars in recurrent funding each year. #MoreThanThanks
Dom feeds them $500 million in capital funding. Morrison chips in $1.9 billion in capital.
Morrison also throws job keeper and special deals at them just for sport.

Naming and shaming schools - a policy failure. ⁦⁦@SOSAust

Another one for the we-told-you-so-file.

Here’s a novel idea.

Fund every school at its minimum Schooling Resource Standard.

#EverySchoolEveryChild
Courtesy of the Berejiklian and Morrison Govts public schools in 2023 will be at 92 per cent of the SRS -the minimum level of resourcing required to educate all students to a high level, with no path in sight to get to 100% of the SRS. Private schools will be at 106% of the SRS.
However, its not even 92%.
The figure is inflated by the Fed Govt’s decision to allow the State Govt to inflate its SRS value by 4% through the inclusion of capital depreciation costs and the recurrent funding of NESA - both absent from the SRS calculation for private schools.
