I have also taught at Lake Bolac P-12 College, Noorat Primary School and Terang P-12 College. How long have you been teaching? GRADE SIX NEWS 18 years, mostly as a secondary school Maths teacher. Why did you choose to be a teacher? I love Maths and Science, and for job security one of my teachers suggested that I should teach.

Do you have any family? I have two children, Maddison, aged 7, and Bradley, aged 5.

    Great South Coast Infrastructure Victoria is investigating infrastructure investment in regional Victoria that builds on the economic strengths of a region, or that reduces disadvantage, primarily through providing greater access to services and economic opportunities. This fact sheet is focussed on reducing disadvantage, and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying framework for reducing disadvantage through infrastructure. The purpose of this fact sheet is to provide evidence that will inform the problem definition for each of Victoria’s nine regions through consultation with stakeholders. The project has a specific focus on areas that experience relatively high levels of disadvantage (ranked in the bottom 30% of the index of Socio-Economic Disadvantage, SEIFA) and this fact sheet provides indicators showing poor outcomes for key demographic groups living in these areas. Infrastructure Victoria invites key stakeholders and service providers to make submissions that provide evidence on which infrastructure could make a difference in reducing disadvantage for the region.
