i voted for rann based on the fact that he called himself 'the education premier' and promised all sorts of better outcomes and more funding for schools.
truth is that he and lomax smith have completely lost touch with what happens in actual schools, and actually need to SAVE money from their education budget. The budgets that our coordinators have to submit (e.g. for PE equipment etc) are the same as they were 6 years ago. Just not enough.
When i could move two hours up the road to mildura and recieve an extra 7k a year (or move to perth for even more) it shows that our government doesn't really value education or educators.
the only scarier thig though is that the liberals have been even quiter on this issue. i might run for parliament.
Riskers gamble, experts calculate.
