LAUNCHING our plan for genuinely free public education.
Every family should be able to access high quality education at local schools that are genuinely free.
That means no out-of-pocket school expenses for families.
Unfortunately, Victoria has some of the lowest-funded public schools in Australia.
Victorian public schools are underfunded by over $1 billion per year, under the current state and federal school funding agreement.
Our public schools aren’t getting the funding they need to meet everyone’s needs – and the cost of what should be a free education is rising.
✏️ 📚 The Greens will invest more in our local public schools so everyone can access a genuinely free public education, with quality teaching and with better support for disadvantaged students.
The cost of living is having an impact on families around Victoria, and this includes rising school costs.
With more Greens in parliament, we will push the next government to go further on reducing the costs of public education.
