A Minns Labor Government will end the historic underfunding of public schools by creating a $400 million Education Future Fund, as well as establishing a permanent and ongoing Literacy and Numeracy tutoring program.
This funding will ensure all public schools receive the funding they need to deliver improved student outcomes and end chronic teacher shortages.
Literacy and Numeracy tutoring program
The program will operate in both primary and high schools, with a particular focus on this year’s Year 10 grade, a cohort that has spent its whole schooling life under the Liberal-National Government and last year recorded some of the worst NAPLAN outcomes in the state’s history.
NSW Labor’s tutoring program will help up to an additional 18,000 students by the end of 2023.
