The coalition government is delivering a new schools funding system that boosts investment by $23.4 billion and ensures that every student receives the support they need to reach their full potential. For the first time, every student will get the support they need no matter their background or where they live. That means things like more one-on-one time with teachers and support for new or existing initiatives, such as specialist educators or targeted intervention programs. Our position is to deliver the funding support equality that each student needs. We will never support Labor's corruption of needs based funding.
