Scott Morrison has cut a special deal to give an additional $4.6 billion to private schools. You read that right. $4.6 BILLION. And he refuses to restore a cent of the $1.9 billion the Liberals cut from public schools.
The Morrison government will inject another $4.6 billion into private schools over the next 10 years in a bid to finally end the funding wars and resolve a political stoush with the upset Catholic and independent school sectors.
For the first time, parental income tax records will be used to assess the socio-economic status of private schools, which in turn affects the level of funding they receive from the federal government.
The plan, revealed by Fairfax Media in June, will be phased in over a decade and was recommended by the National School Resourcing Board. It does not affect federal funding for public schools.
Scott Morrison has locked in massive cuts to public schools.No one voted for Morrison’s cuts to public schools, but he’s cutting them anyway!!!
