On average, in the member for Sydney's electorate, the schools will be better off under the Turnbull government's plan by $2.5 million each. St Andrew's Cathedral School, in the member for Sydney's electorate, will get over $6 million more under the Turnbull government's plan. Newtown High School of the Performing Arts, in the member for Sydney's electorate, will get an increase of over $8 million over the next 10 years.

In the member for Maribyrnong's electorate, there are 54 schools and over 30,000 school students. Every single school will benefit under the Turnbull government's plan—an average of $7.2 million extra for those schools. So I look forward to the member for Maribyrnong going to Ave Maria College and saying to them that, under the Turnbull government's plan, they will get an extra $14 million over the next 10 years. St Christopher's School, in the member for Maribyrnong's electorate, over the next 10 years will get an extra $12 million. Maribyrnong Secondary College, in the member for Maribyrnong's electorate, over the next 10 years will get an extra $10 million. And St Albans Secondary College, in the Leader of the Opposition's electorate, over the next 10 years will get an extra $13 million.

Only the Turnbull government will deliver more money for the schools in the electorate of the Leader of the Opposition, in the electorate of the member for Sydney and for 9,000-plus schools across Australia.
