Since coming to power in 2010 the State Liberal Government has cut more than $400million from the State Education budget. The Federal government via the Gonski report is planning to spend more than the amount cut by the State yet the Liberal State Government is making every weak and faulty excuse it can not to sign up to Gonski.
The underlying theme is clear. This State Government is not committed to the State Education System. It’s priorities are for parents sending their children to private schools. The other factor at play is that Abbott no doubt would be urging the State not to sign up to Gonski because he ydoesn’t want the Gillard government to be given credit for improving education in this State and in this country. It’s scandalous the the Liberal Party both State and Federal is willing to play politics with the education of our children.
