Push for public schools in NSW to be fully funded

NSW Education Minister Prue Car is pushing for public schools in her state to be fully funded. Mr Car says NSW needs to aim for the “minimum” of 100 percent needs-based funding. “People will remember we’ve been talking about Gonski for years and years, and your public schools and I can certainly speak for New South Wales,” she told Sky News Australia. “We haven’t reached that 100 per cent. “The Commonwealth government have offered us an amount, we don’t believe it’s enough to get there.”
