This campaign is organised by a community of parents, teachers, principals, school support staff and citizens, working together to speak up and demand fair funding of public schools.
Fair funding would mean smaller class sizes, more one-on-one support, additional teachers and support staff, more support for children with disability or behavioural needs.
All schools should be properly resourced to meet the unique needs of every child and help them reach their potential. We’re speaking up against the Liberal-National government in Canberra’s $1.9 billion funding cut to public schools in 2018 and 2019 that will leave 87% of public schools below the minimum level of funding required to meet the educational needs of children.
