First of all, I think we should just cast our minds back to the reason why we're in this situation: the opposition's National School Reform Agreement, in which government schools will never get the schooling resource standard that they require. Of course, when you look at the fact that it is 10 years since the Liberal Party ripped more than $20 billion out of our public schools in this country, it stands as an absolute disgrace of those opposite. The coalition left public schools without a pathway to 100 per cent of the SRS.
