FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Funding for schools should be allocated using a needs-based funds model, the Gonski report is expected to reveal on Monday.
The report will recommend a base cost for educating a child in Australia, which will be increased for indigenous students, students with disabilities and disadvantaged students, Fairfax reports.
“Australia lacks a logical, consistent and publicly transparent approach to funding schooling,” the report will state.
Children will also be assessed on their parents’ ability to pay school fees, with the government allocating additional resources on that basis.
The report is also expected to recommend a $5 billion increase in school funding with 75 per cent of that for public schools, according to Fairfax.
But the independent school sector is concerned schools that raise private money by fundraising will be penalised.
“If you consider private income and apply it to all schools, parents who are raising funds for their PC will find that for every extra dollar they raise they will lose a dollar in funding,” head of the Association of Independent Schools in NSW, Geoff Newcombe, told Fairfax.
The review into school funding has taken place over 18 months and taken into consideration about 7000 submissions.
It will be released on Monday by Prime Minister Julia Gillard.
