The Australian Education Union is urging all members and the broader community to get involved in the national campaign for better public school funding. The Public Schools For Our Future campaign coincides with the Federal Government's review of the funding of schooling. This is the first time since 1973 that such a comprehensive review of how schools are funded has been undertaken and is a great chance to get a better deal for our schools.
To get involved in the campaign sign up at the campaign website today and show your support on facebook.
More than 6000 submissions were made through the For Our Future website before the deadline of 31 March 2011. This is an overwhelming response from public schools and their communities.
