Government funding for the state’s private and Catholic school students increased at a faster rate than for children enrolled in NSW public schools over the past decade

for giving public schools less government funding than they need to meet students’ educational needs while locking in the over-funding of some private schools around the country.

Federal Education Minister Jason Clare said of the report: “The Albanese Government is committed to working with state and territory governments to get every school to 100 per cent of its fair funding level.” “At a system level, we must be able to say whether we are investing effectively and pinpoint inefficiencies. We need a deep analysis at a national and state level on where funding is going and how it is being spent.”as funding levels are adjusted for fairness under the Gonski model, which introduced a Schooling Resource Standard . The changes take into account parents’ income data to assess how much they can afford to contribute to fees. These funding cuts will be phased in until 2029.
