Federal budget begins long-term repair of broken education system

10 May, 2023

The 2023-2024 federal budget announced overnight is a positive start to beginning the long-term repair of a broken education system in Australia after a decade of neglect by the previous coalition government.

IEUA Federal Secretary Brad Hayes said the new budget rightly restores education at the centre of our nation’s policy focus.

“Our 75,000 members often hear about the importance of their work in schools, and it’s universally accepted there are major problems in education, including widespread staff shortages,” Brad said.
