Terms of Reference The Select Committee on School Funding has been tasked to inquire into and report on the development and implementation of national school funding arrangements and school reform, with particular reference to: a. the implementation of needs-based funding arrangements, from 1 January 2014, for all schools and school systems, including:

i. Commonwealth funding, methods for the distribution of funds, funding arrangements and agreements with states and territories, as well as related accountability and transparency measures

ii. funding arrangements for individual schools

iii. the extent to which schools can anticipate their total future funding and links to educational programs in future years

iv. the consequential equity of educational opportunity between states and territories, schools and students

v. progress towards the Schooling Resource Standard

vi. the implementation of schools reforms b. how funding arrangements will meet the needs of all schools and individual students, including Indigenous students, students with disability, small schools, remote schools, students with limited English, and students from socially and economically disadvantaged backgrounds c. the Government’s proposed changes to the Australian Education Act 2013, related legislative instruments and their consequences d. the economic impacts of school education policy e. the Government’s consideration of expert findings, research, public consultation and reports in the development and implementation of school policy, including the selection of experts to provide advice on education policy f. any related matters.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

The Queensland Teachers’ Union (QTU) submission will focus specifically on terms of reference a) (i) (ii) and (iii) and b). This submission builds on the submissions made to the 2011 Review of Funding for Schooling, and subsequent findings and report released in 2012, known as 'The Gonski Report'. This submission asserts that all the recommendations in the Gonksi Report should be implemented. The QTU firmly endorses the Gonski Report’s statements that:

“Every child should have access to the best possible education, regardless of where they live, the income of their family or the school they attend.

“...the key to achieving this vision is to strengthen the current national schooling reforms through funding reform.”

Further, that Australia “must prioritise support for its lowest performing students”i.

Introduction

The QTU represents more than 43,000 teachers and principals working in the Queensland Government’s primary schools, secondary schools, special schools, TAFE colleges and other educational facilities. Our members work in every corner of this vast state, from large metropolitan schools to single teacher primary schools in remote locations.

This submission is based on the QTU's belief that education is the basis on which our nation’s future economic prosperity and social equity will be built. This view is shared by everyday Queenslanders, who have recognised the importance of education. The number one priority, as voted by the delegates at the Brisbane Summit of the Queensland Plan is,

Education that is flexible, affordable and accessible to all, including rural, remote and disadvantaged.

In preparing this submission, the QTU draws on the hundreds of submissions made by individual Queensland schools in the 2011 review. We have summarised the key points and provided an overview of the 2011 submissions in section 1. In section 2 we provide case studies showcasing the success achieved by schools who have received extra funding under the National Partnerships program. Finally, in section 3, we discuss the Great Results Guarantee program, the Queensland Government’s current approach to distributing the additional funds provided by the federal government as a result of the Students First - A

5 fairer funding for schools initiative. It is our hope that this submission will convince the review committee of the need for increased funding for all schools and the introduction of a needs based funding model, as recommended by the Gonski Report in 2012.

The QTU welcomes the opportunity to submit to this inquiry into the development of national school funding arrangements and school reform.

Background

The QTU endorses the position of the Australian Education Union regarding the 2011 Review of Funding for Schooling (the ‘Gonski Review’) and subsequent recommendations, as expressed in its submission. The AEU submission states that the Gonksi Review:

“...established that as a nation we invest too little in education and that our funding arrangements are inequitable, inefficient and failing too many of our children. Driven largely by political accommodations rather than the needs of students and schools, they have resulted in achievement and educational attainment gaps between students from disadvantaged backgrounds and those from more advantaged backgrounds which are greater than in any comparable nation.

“It found that those most affected by the inequities in our funding system are the most vulnerable and disadvantaged students, including those with disabilities and special needs, and the schools that serve them; predominantly schools in the public sector.”

Further, the AEU submission states that “the review made a series of recommendations for long overdue major reform of our schools funding arrangements.

“At the heart of these recommendations was the call for a national commitment to substantially increased investment in education and a fairer, more equitable funding system. These two measures would help lift Australia’s educational achievement by ensuring all schools have the resources they need to educate every student to a high standard, no matter what their background.”ii

The QTU hopes to convince the review committee of the need for increased funding for all schools and the introduction of a needs based funding model, as recommended by the Gonski Report in 2012.

Section 1: Précis of previous submissions

When the federal school funding review called for submissions in 2011, close to 400 Queensland state school communities, approximately one third of all Queensland public schools, made detailed submissions to the review panel. The names of these schools are listed in appendix 1.

The characteristics, challenges and opportunities in those communities remain the same in 2014.

In précis, the following sets out profiles of Queensland state schools in:

A. rural and remote settings

B. regional centres

C. metropolitan areas.

A. Queensland state schools in rural and remote settings Number of state schools classified as remote - 151

Number of state schools classified as rural – 455

Information from submissions previously made by schools

1. Characteristics of school communities

 High proportion of small schools (fewer than 150 students), delivering education to up to eight year levels in one classroom.  School communities range from long-established rural families to areas of high unemployment, low socio-economic status and a high dependence on welfare; in some rural residential areas, residents live with no power, running water or sewerage.  Increasing enrolments of students: with special needs and increasing levels of physical disability; from lower socio-economic backgrounds; with English as a second language; and from Indigenous backgrounds.  Increasing transience of student populations.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 Reliance on distance education, both to overcome isolation and to offer a wide range of subjects (particularly in high school).  Relatively high proportion of teaching staff who are new teachers with less than three years’ experience; geographic isolation often leads to feelings of professional isolation.  School buildings tend to be old, with many schools 60 to 100+ years old.

2. What rural and remote schools are doing well

 Sense of community – schools are community hubs, in terms of physical spaces open to the community, active local networks and liaison with other groups such as police and health workers.  Working together – schools collaborate closely in clusters and with local communities to share expertise and resources to obtain maximum value from limited funding.  National Partnership Agreements – extra federal funds have allowed schools to employ literacy coaches to work with students and mentor teachers, “purchase” additional teacher-aide time, enhance classroom resources, reduce class sizes, build stronger relationships with parents and deliver focused programs to meet individual student needs.  Individualised learning within a multi-age context – students’ individual needs and learning styles in both academic and social development are central to education delivery, despite a lack of multi-age teaching resources.  Broad offerings – schools are committed to educating "the whole child" and staff show ingenuity in accessing one-off grants, sharing resources and working with local communities to extend school offerings well beyond the "three Rs".

3. What rural and remote schools need

 Funding certainty - Closing the Gap funding available to some schools with significant enrolments of Indigenous students is delivered with a lack of certainty about ongoing funding, thereby limiting both programs and staffing; gains made through National Partnership Agreements are under threat as funding ceases.  Targeted literacy and numeracy programs – intervention programs that specifically target the needs of individual students, particularly those with English as a second

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

language and those with previously poor attendance records, have seen rapid improvements in students’ learning; however, funding for such programs and the staffing required is not ongoing and is either found from other parts of schools’ budgets, or dropped when funds dry up.  Specialist support for vulnerable students – there is a chronic shortage of guidance officers, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, special education teachers, and school nurses to support growing numbers of students with special physical, learning or welfare needs; there is an increasing incidence of children with mental health and welfare issues.  Specialist teachers and extension programs – there is high unmet demand for music, physical education and LOTE teachers, and limited resources for programs for gifted and talented students; curriculum offerings, particularly in the high school years, are limited by lack of access to staff, facilities and equipment.  Teacher professional development – high costs of travel and accommodation limit teachers’ and principals’ access to professional development; this becomes increasingly problematic as major changes such as the Australian Curriculum are implemented.  ICT – technical support, faster and more reliable internet access and improved equipment, including interactive whiteboards; this is particularly important for distance education. 4. Rural and remote schools are relying on P&C fundraising and teachers’ and principals’ personal expenditure to provide: basic classroom materials and consumables; camps, excursions and sporting carnivals (at far greater expense than in the south-east corner of the state); visual and performing arts equipment and events; library resources; breakfast and homework clubs; positive behaviour rewards and programs; grounds maintenance and landscaping; and outside school hours and vacation care.

5. Previous submission quotes from rural and remote school communities

 “We are committed to providing our students with the widest possible choice in the future that is best for them, but are finding it more and more difficult to turn our good school into a great one.”

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 “Community fundraising should not have to provide for the very basics that state schools require. This only serves to further entrench the disadvantage that disadvantaged communities already experience.”  “By providing a wide and challenging range of learning experience, students at this school can progress at the same pace as their city counterparts.”

B. Queensland state schools in regional centres Number of state schools classified as “provincial city” - 108

Information from submissions previously made by schools

1. Characteristics of school communities

 Increasing enrolments of students with disabilities and learning difficulties, and increasing complexity of associated needs; enrolment in many special education programs/units has tripled in the past 10 years.  Increasing enrolment of Indigenous students and those with English as a second language.  Increasing level of transience and socio-economic need among families.  In larger centres, rapid increase in enrolments due to population growth, particularly in prep.  Regional shortage of skilled agricultural, horticultural and trade workers.

2. What regional centre schools are doing well

 National Partnership Agreements – extra federal funding has allowed schools to engage literacy coaches and community liaison officers, give teachers more release time for professional development and joint planning, provide students with more individualised learning programs and resources including ICT, and fund positive behaviour programs.  Partnerships – by strongly focusing on engaging parents in their children’s education and actively developing links with local businesses and community groups, schools are providing more opportunities for their students.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 Collegial approach – teachers within schools and across clusters work proactively together to share expertise and resources, because of both professional inclination and practical obligation to make scarce resources available as widely as possible.  Innovation – staff spend a great deal of time and effort in applying for one-off grants and donations to supplement ongoing funding which is not keeping pace with school population growth, level of student need or costs of service delivery.

3. What regional centre schools need

 Long-term funding certainty – gains made through National Partnership Agreements are at risk with cessation of funding.  Support for students with special needs – with students ranging across the full spectrum of physical disability and intellectual impairment, schools are struggling to provide specialised programs, health and welfare support, and are severely limited in guiding students to post-school options; specialist teachers such as ESL teachers are in chronic undersupply, as are allied health professionals (speech pathologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and school nurses); many schools are ageing and have limited physical access for students with disabilities; students with behavioural issues lack access to guidance officers and alternative education programs.  VET – schools put in great efforts to offer a wide range of vocational training programs to address community concerns that young people are leaving regional centres to find work; programs aim to adapt to changing industries of local employment, for example, a mix of agriculture, horticulture and trades, plus service- oriented industries including tourism and childcare; VET in schools requires smaller class sizes for learning and safety, often expensive equipment and facilities, structured work-experience programs particularly for students at-risk of dropping out of formal education, and release time for teachers to maintain industry currency.  ICT – schools are struggling to make ICT part of day-to-day learning due to a lack of hardware, internet access and ICT technical support.  Administrative support – particularly in fast-growing schools, there is inadequate funding for administrative staff to allow educational professionals to focus on the core business of education.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

4. Regional centre schools are relying on P&C fundraising and teachers’ and principals’ personal expenditure to provide: teaching materials, particularly for children whose families cannot afford to pay for basic supplies; excursions, camps and sporting events, coaching and equipment; musical performances and equipment; covered eating and play areas; extracurricular activities such as homework clubs, breakfast clubs, permaculture gardens and cooking groups; building and grounds maintenance; IT equipment; air conditioning; and extension programs for gifted and talented students.

5. Previous submission quotes from regional centre schools

 “The state education system celebrates and embraces diversity. Through the very necessary and appropriate provision of educational facilities in all types of communities in a geographically diverse state such as Queensland, it is inevitable that challenges, disadvantage and inequity will result unless specific and targeted funding is provided.”  “The amazing efforts by the P&C committee barely keep our head above the water line in basic curriculum delivery and our school is extremely grateful to them, knowing that without their help, we would be significantly disadvantaged in offering front line services to students.”  “Our children are our future; resourcing education should be our highest priority to position us as global citizens now and into the next century.”

C. Queensland state schools in metropolitan areas Number of state schools classified as metropolitan - 509

Information from submissions previously made by schools

1. Characteristics of metropolitan school communities

 Rapid population growth, particularly in metropolitan fringes where families are drawn to affordable housing, leading to rapid enrolment growth, most noticeably in prep.  Transient populations.  Increasing enrolments of students with disabilities, learning difficulties, mental health issues and other special needs, including refugee children.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 Increasing enrolment of students from Indigenous, Pacific Islander and non-English speaking backgrounds.  Increasing levels of low SES families needing social support.

2. What metropolitan schools are doing well

 National Partnership Agreements – extra federal funding has allowed schools to provide extra staffing, specialised literacy and numeracy resources and programs, and more social and educational support for students from a wide range of backgrounds.

 Improving student attendance and behaviour – school-wide positive behaviour strategies, innovative communication methods and positive behaviour rewards programs have produced outstanding improvements in attendance and behaviour; however, some schools now report problems in engaging students “forced” to attend.  Aspirations for all students – despite high levels of need and educational disadvantage in many communities, metropolitan schools share a long-term focus on after-school achievements by all students; there are no "diminished expectations".

3. What metropolitan schools need

 Support for student health and welfare – lack of ongoing funding restricts schools’ ability to implement strategies and employ learning support teachers and guidance officers for early intervention (which has long-term benefits) for students with learning difficulties, disabilities, language problems and/or behavioural issues.

 Extra-curricular activities and VET – schools lack on-going funding for music, drama, debating and public speaking programs, cultural celebration events, and health and wellbeing programs, as well as for resources and staffing for VET; this lack affects students who aspire to post-school paid work or training rather than university, and limits extension programs for gifted and talented students. 4. Metropolitan schools are relying on P&C fundraising and teachers’ and principals’ personal expenditure to provide: student transport to sporting and cultural events; positive behaviour rewards, student leadership programs, celebration days and graduations; extension programs for gifted and talented students; breakfast and

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

homework clubs; camps and excursions; basic classroom resources, particularly in low SES communities; uniform loan/assistance schemes; IT equipment and maintenance; science and visual and performing arts equipment and programs; air conditioning installation and maintenance; and after-hours care.

5. Previous submission quotes from metropolitan schools

 “Until we receive more support, inequality of opportunity will continue to be endemic in state schools and the current teacher-bashing is not helpful. It seems scapegoating is easier than fixing the problem. The hard truth is we have had the ‘Sermon from the Mount;’ but have not received the ‘loaves and fishes’.”  “The school’s P&C is small but dedicated, and social and economic pressures have impacted on the P&C’s ability to adequately fundraise and support the school’s programs.”  “Differential staffing is needed for our heavily weighted low socio-economic community in order to support students who have progressed through primary school with low literacy and numeracy levels. Success at high school is very improbable without significant intervention.”

Section 2: National Partnerships schools on the road to success

This section describes the progress made by five Queensland schools which received additional funding under the National Partnerships program. These examples show how change is possible when needs based funding is provided to schools that need it most. The case studies have been set out in a way consistent with that used by the Grattan Institute in its paper “Turning around schools: it can be done”iii.

A. Harris Fields State School

Location: Woodridge, Logan City; 22 km south of Brisbane City.

School type: Primary school with 500 students

Student profile:

 Low socio-economic status.  High unemployment and a significant number of single parent families.  Moderately high rate of transience.  Approximately 60% of students are Pacifica, 13% Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander and 3% new settlers from Africa in addition to Indonesian, Middle Eastern and European students.  Approximately 50% of students speak a language other than English at home.

Performance

 In 2008 NAPLAN scores were statistically below the nation in terms of the percentage of students at or above National Minimum Standards. By 2011 results had improved so at least three of the five NAPLAN domains were statistically similar to the nation for every year group.  Using a long term comparison of NAPLAN scores (2008-2011), significant improvements can be noted. This includes an improvement in the mean scale scores for Year 5 Reading from 399 to 464 and Year 5 Numeracy from 397 to 459. Likewise, the percentage of students achieving in the bottom two bands of NAPLAN, that is, below the National Minimum Standards, has decreased for Year 5 Reading from 69.4% in 2008 to 30.4% in 2011, and for Year 5 Numeracy from 75.8% in 2008 to 33.3% in 2011. The percentage of students achieving in the top two bands of

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

NAPLAN also saw Year 5 Reading improve from 8.1% in 2008 to 20.3% in 2011 and Year 5 Numeracy improve from 3.2% in 2008 to 14.5% in 2011.  In addition to the improvement in literacy and numeracy, as evidenced by NAPLAN data, the school has seen improvements in attendance and involvement in school activities, especially with the schools’ Indigenous and Pacifica students. In 2009 the school was struggling to meet 85% attendance; by 2012 attendance had increased to 92%.  Short term disciplinary absences dropped from 37 in 2008 to 17 in 2011, a drop of 53%.  School enrolments increased from 465 students in July 2009 to 526 students in July 2012, an increase of 13%.

Steps for turnaround

National Partnerships funding has enabled the employment of a number of key staff to drive the improvement in student outcomes. One of the school’s teachers trained as a Numeracy Coach and was then able to provide professional development and support for all teachers and facilitate teacher development and quality curriculum delivery in maths. The Numeracy Coach worked with a local academic to build Harris Fields State School as a numeracy school, using the Natural Maths approach to numeracy and mathematics, which is still supported by the Natural Maths consultant.

They have also employed an Early Years Literacy Consultant who has helped embed common practices across Prep to Year 3. National Partnerships funding has enabled the school to have three “step-up” teachers, who are not attached to any one classroom, and teacher-aides who are able to provide personalised support to teachers. The additional teachers have meant that staff could be released for professional development and that all teachers could be provided with additional non-contact time each week to plan their classes and complete their reporting work. This focus on literacy has allowed for more targeted intervention for students at both ends of the spectrum, both those who need extra help and those who need to be extended to achieve more.

The visual arts teacher, who is employed under the National Partnerships plan, has extended the school’s already successful Arts program, which has proved to be very popular with students and a huge success in terms of community engagement.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

Harris Fields State School has also developed strong relationships with community organisations, such as Youth and Family Services, the Salvation Army, Logan PCYC and Griffith University, which has increased community engagement and led to more support being provided for students and their families.

B. Redbank Plains State High School

Location: Redbank Plains, within Ipswich City Council, 30 km from the Brisbane CBD.

School type: Coeducational secondary with approximately 1400 students in years 8-12.

Student profile:

 Low socio-economic status  Approximately 35% of the student body are Pacifica, 12% Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and 6% African.

Performance:

 In 2011 only 71% of students completing 12 years of education attained a Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) or a Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement (QCIA), the official record received by students with special needs who are on Individualised Learning Plans because they are learning from a different year level curriculum and achievement standard to the student’s age cohort. By 2013 this completion rate had risen dramatically to 99.5%.  Similarly the number of students leaving school without a QCE or Vocational Education and Training qualification reduced from 15 in 2011 to zero in 2013.  The number of students receiving a Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre (QTAC) offer rose from 78% in 2010 to 97% in 2013.  Truancy had been a major problem at the school; within just one semester (Semester 1, 2012) levels dropped from 40-50 students a day to almost zero.  Enrolments for 2014 are now at 1475. This is an increase of nearly 300 students over the duration of the National Partnerships journey.

Steps for turnaround

One of the key features of the improvements listed above was the way the school utilised the National Partnerships funding. In 2011 the implementation of the school’s Low SES National Partnerships initiatives began. Their agenda was based on three pillars of improvement: attendance, behaviour and curriculum. A number of key staff were employed to deliver these initiatives. The school employed a full-time Community Liaison Officer and leased a car to maximise their ability to connect with students and their families. The second pillar, student behaviour, was addressed via the employment of two Deans of Students. These two positions focussed solely on the improvement of student behaviour both inside and outside the classroom. With the Deans focusing on student behaviour, the three Deputy Principals and 11 Heads of Department were able to focus on the curriculum and the core business of enhancing the quality of instruction in the classroom. These improvements would not have been possible without the additional National Partnerships funding and provide clear evidence that increased school funding leads to better outcomes for students.

C. Glenala State High School

Location: 18 km west of the Brisbane CBD in the outer western suburbs.

School type: Coeducational secondary with approximately 630 students in years 8-12.

Student profile:

 Low socio-economic status.  The majority of students are from the Pacifica region, 18% of students are Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander and 9% of students are from a Vietnamese background.

Performance

 Between 2010 and 2012 NAPLAN results dramatically improved. Reading results improved; in 2010 63.5% of students were at or above the National Minimum Standards. This increased to 83.8% in 2013. Spelling increased from 75.6% to 85.2%. Similarly numeracy results went from 73.2% in 2010 to 87.3% in 2012.  There has also been a dramatic improvement in outcomes for Year 12 graduates. In 2010 73% of students achieved their QCE; by 2012 this had risen to 94% and by 2013 this had again risen to 100%. Graduates receiving OP 1-15 rose from 58% in 2010 to

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

100% by 2012, and QTAC offers rose from 71.4% in 2010 to 92.6% in 2012 to 100% in 2013.  There has been a significant improvement in school attendance rates. In 2010 attendance was at 80%, in 2012 it had increased to 89%.  Enrolments have increased from 432 students in 2011 to 632 in 2014.

Steps for turnaround

The school was able to utilise the additional funding to hire key staff to improve student outcomes. It used funds to secure a full time Guidance Officer, as they were only allocated one part-time at 0.5 full-time equivalent (FTE). Using both National Partnerships funding and its FTE entitlement, the school employed both a Senior and Junior Director of Student Achievement. These roles have enabled both Senior and Junior students to have their attendance and achievement monitored, allowing for greater individualisation in the way student performance is managed. Weekly data meetings are run by the Directors of Student Achievement with a focus on data analysis and information sharing; thus staff are well aware of the students at risk, performance, targets and school processes and expectations. The Directors of Student Achievement work in partnership with parents and through regular contact with parents have developed greater communication and parental and community involvement. The employment of a full time Pacifica Liaison Officer has facilitated increased engagement of students, parents and the community. They also bought more time for Year Coordinators to manage attendance and retention, which directly correlates with the improvement in school attendance rates. The school has also made a concerted effort to employ high performing culturally appropriate staff of Aboriginal, Pacifica, Vietnamese and African descent.

D. Cairns West State School

Location: 3 km west of Cairns City in Far North Queensland.

School type: Coeducational primary school with approximately 650 students from Prep to year seven.

Student profile:

 Low socio-economic status.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 The largest Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander primary school operating in an urban setting in Queensland.  68% of students are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, 12% are Pacifica, 10% of students are African, Bhutanese and Nepalese while 10% of students are Caucasian.  Less than 10% of the students have English as a first language.

Performance

 Significant improvements have been achieved in literacy and numeracy. In December 2011 only 3.9% of year 3 and 7.5% of Year 4 students were working at or above the national benchmark in spelling. Just one year later, in December 2012, 62.5% of Year 3 and 67.6% of Year 4 students were at or above the benchmark.

Steps for turnaround

Cairns West State School adopted six National Partnership Key Reform Areas:

1. Incentives to attract high-performing principals and teachers.

2. Adoption of best-practice performance management and staffing arrangements that articulate a clear role for principals.

3. School operational arrangements which encourage innovation and flexibility.

4. Provision of innovative and tailored learning opportunities.

5. Strengthened school accountability.

6. External partnerships with parents, other schools, businesses and communities and provision of access to extended services.

One of their unique ways of achieving these reforms was via the introduction of the Academic Success Guarantee. This involves a commitment to ensuring that students with an attendance rate of 95% or more of the school year will meet or beat their year level benchmarks. By working in partnership with parents, the school individually case- manages the students who do not meet their year level bench marks. Progress and attendance data is reviewed every five weeks, which enables early intervention and remediation of difficulties.

Several new positions were created utilising the National Partnerships funding, which facilitated the dramatic improvement in literacy and numeracy. In 2012 a Head of

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

Student Services position was created to assist students and families enrolling into the school, settling children into new classes, supporting learning needs and connecting families with community and support agencies. They also managed and enhanced school-wide initiatives for attendance, mobility and transition to high school. A Pedagogy Coach was employed who worked with all teaching staff to reflect on and refine best teaching practices. Additionally a Community Engagement Officer was employed to facilitate family engagement activities and parent capacity building strategies, including adult literacy, numeracy and ICTs to enhance work readiness. The school also purchased an increased Guidance Officer allocation as well as extra teacher, teacher-aide and tutorial support time, so teachers had additional support to improve student learning outcomes. The National Partnership funds were also used to implement a mentoring plan, foster community links and to establish an artist in residence program.

E. Urangan Point State School

Location: Southern end of Hervey Bay in the Fraser Coast community, approximately 300km north of Brisbane.

School type: Coeducational primary school with approximately 400 students from Prep to year seven.

Student profile:

 Low socio-economic status  25% of families are single parent in nature  High transient rate with over 25% of students leaving in the period of a school year  13% of students are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander while other dominant backgrounds are from Thailand, the Philippines and Spain. 7% of students have special needs and 1% of students are Children in Care of the State.

Performance

 In 2009 achievement levels were well below National Benchmarks and this was accepted as the norm. In five years, and with the assistance of the National Partnerships funding, this had vastly improved. NAPLAN relative gain data from 2008-2013 reveals students have four strands well above the national average, eight strands above and three at the national average.  Since National Partnerships commenced, enrolments have grown from 294 to 420, an increase of 30%.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

Steps for turnaround

National Partnerships funding has enabled the school to hire both more general staff and more specialist staff. It has been able to secure double the Health and Physical Education and Music allocation, have a Social Skills Coordinator and a Student Welfare Teacher, as well as 15 teacher-aides and two extra full-time teachers. It has an extra Learning Support Teacher for Years 4-7, an extra teacher for Year 1 and teacher aides to cover Literacy and Numeracy sessions for Prep and Years 2-4.

Because of its high needs clientele, student welfare has been the top priority for Urangan Point State School. It has employed a Student Welfare Teacher who is responsible for Level 2 behaviour referrals as well as mentoring the Student Leadership Team. The Student Welfare Teacher also implements supervised sports activities during breaks, utilising volunteer supervisors, which has directly reduced referrals for negative behaviours in play times by 50% in only two years. It has also invested in a broad team of welfare staff, including a Social Skills Coordinator, Welfare Teacher Aide, School Chaplain and Indigenous Education Worker.

Additionally, the school has been able to invest in ICTs using National Partnerships funding. Now every staff member has an iPad, there are two class sets of iPads, interactive whiteboards in every classroom, Wi-Fi throughout the school and an ICT lab with 30 computers.

Section 3: The “Great Results Guarantee”

Distribution of federal funds in Queensland: The “Great Results Guarantee”

The Great Results Guarantee (GRG) scheme is Queensland’s approach to distributing the additional funds provided by the federal government as a result of the Students First – A fairer funding for schools initiative. It is unique in Australia because the additional federal funding is being allocated directly to schools; thus schools, rather than regions or central office, will decide how the money will be spent. While the state government has stated that the money is to be used to “improve student performance”, the clear message to schools is that the money is used to address literacy and numeracy, with a particular with focus on younger students. This is evident from the information provided to schools and the distribution of funding. Of the $131 million being delivered this year, $99 million is going to

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

22 primary schools; secondary schools will receive $30 million while special schools will receive $2 million.

In order to receive the additional funding, schools must complete an agreement that commits them to guarantee that every student will either:

 achieve the National Minimum Standard for literacy and numeracy for their year level or  have an evidence-based plan, developed by the school, in place to address their specific learning difficulties

State schools will enter into an agreement with Queensland’s Department of Education, Training and Employment, while Independent Public Schools will establish an agreement with their School Council. Agreements will be published on school websites so that parents and other members of the community can see how this funding is being used.

Student performance will be measured throughout the year and schools will be required to demonstrate how the extra funding is helping to maximise learning outcomes for all students. How student performance will be measured has not been prescribed and is a matter for schools to include in their agreement.

A critique of the Queensland Great Results Guarantee funding model

The positives

 The program has delivered an additional $131 million to state education in Queensland for 2014 as part of a $784 four-year program.

 The funding has been provided directly to schools on the basis of the allocations contained in Appendix (3).

 In theory, schools alone are meant to decide how the additional funding is to be spent to address literacy and numeracy outcomes for students or areas of learning needs to support those outcomes.

 Recognition of the importance of early years education to promoting improvement across the system in the long term.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 Some recognition of elements of educational disadvantage is included e.g. English as an additional language or dialect (EALD), refugee status, Indigeneity.

 Special schools also receive additional funding.

 The continuation of funding for phase 3 and 4 Low SES National Partnership (NP) schools in 2014 only.

 Additional support ($26,600) to mid-sized primary schools for administrative demands associated with allocation of additional funds.

The negatives

 The methodology used to allocate the additional federal funding is not consistent with the needs–based model recommended by the Gonski panel or the model of the “Better Schools funding” of the previous Labor federal government.

 The failure of the Queensland Government to provide any additional funds for schools, let alone on the two-thirds/one-third basis established in the “Better Schools” funding model.

 The unrealistic goal of guaranteeing 100% of Queensland students will achieve the national minimum standards for literacy and numeracy

 The lack of any transparent rationale for the allocation of loadings, e.g. why those allocations of money, why to those particular groups of students?

 The loss of funding, and therefore programs, in some Low SES NP schools as a result of changes in the enrolment figures used to calculate the funding (2008 vs. 2014 enrolment figures), despite a commitment to four years of funding.

 Despite assurances to the contrary, schools are experiencing interference in planning processes with external parties attempting to dictate such issues as objectives to be met and specific uses of the additional money.

 An unrealistic allocation of a minimum of $5000 to small schools: an amount ($25 per school day) that is insufficient to deliver any measurable benefits to those schools.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 An allocation of $95 per student in secondary schools, representing less than 50 cents per day to support improved outcomes.

 Proposed use of NAPLAN test outcomes to determine school success in delivery of the guarantee, creating an increase in the consequences of these already high stakes tests.

 The late announcement (28 January 2014), resulting in very short timelines for consultation with staff and school communities, compounded by huge negative pressure on schools arising from unrealistic assertions of expectations of improvement in student outcomes by mid-2014.

 The failure of the Queensland Government to recognise the demonstrated value added to schools through the National Partnerships.

 Lack of a guarantee that the Queensland Government will provide adequate ongoing funding to at least cover enrolment growth and escalating cost in state schools.

Uncertainties

 The methodology to be applied to determine whether the use of the additional funds has been effective in improving the numbers of students that have reached the national minimum standards in literacy and numeracy.

 How the additional federal funding will be allocated in 2015 and beyond.

The Great Results Guarantee (GRG) funding comes on the back of inadequate funding for enrolment growth by the Queensland government. A saving of approximately $60 million was achieved through the underfunding of staffing for growth in student enrolments in the 2012-2013 state budget. An extra 10,000 students enrolled in state schools, yet 519 fewer teachers than were needed to match this growth were employed, impacting negatively on all but six of Queensland’s state schools.

A complex series of staffing formula changes have had the following effects:

 519 fewer full-time equivalent (FTE) teacher positions due to negative changes in the staffing methodology from 2012 to 2013 and increased student enrolments.

 Every high school in the state lost one FTE teacher equivalent with the reallocation of a resource teacher position.

Authorised by Graham Moloney, General Secretary, QTU, PO Box 1750, Milton QLD 4064

 121 schools (10% of schools) lost at least one teacher FTE.

 A further 366 schools lost at least .5 of a teacher FTE.

 56% of schools lost at least 0.1 FTE due to changes in the staffing methodology from 2012 to 2013 (0.1 FTE translates to one teaching day per fortnight).

 1168 schools (95%) lost at least a fraction of a teacher FTE.

 Only 6 schools had an increase in their teacher FTE (the maximum increase was 0.1 of an FTE).

Every 0.1 FTE teacher position lost represents the equivalent of a $10,000 hit to the budget of a school. For all secondary schools in Queensland the impact of the 2013 changes amount to a minimum initial loss of $100,000 that could have been compounded or ameliorated by corresponding changes in enrolments. GRG funds would restore this loss in some secondary schools, depending on their number of students. Secondary schools with enrolments of 1053 or more students receive additional funds to the school under GRG. However secondary schools with enrolments of less than 1053 students would experience a net loss of resources.

On balance, the GRG funding allocations of the Queensland government will provide for a slight improvement of the short-term overall funding situation for Queensland schools in 2014 but at a cost of increased uncertainty and unachievable expectations regarding 100% of students at the national minimum standards for literacy and numeracy or individual learning plans which the school may lack the funds to be able to deliver.

Recommendations

Section 1 of this submission has established that while Queensland state schools work hard for our students, they struggle with a lack of resources. Schools and their communities know what they need in order to succeed and are frustrated by their inability to deliver the best outcomes for all students due to budgetary constraints. This is particularly so for schools with high proportions of disadvantaged students. In order to remedy this, the full raft of Gonski recommendations should be implemented, particularly the emphasis on a needs based funding model that provides funding for schools based on the educational disadvantage of their students. Section 2 of this submission has clearly established that

26 when schools are properly funded, outstanding results follow. Money spent on schools is an investment in our nation’s future and every Australian child deserves a top quality education. Section 3 has established that while the additional funds granted to Queensland schools under the Great Results Guarantee program are appreciated, the uncertainty of ongoing funding and short timeframes for the implementation of programs makes it difficult for schools to plan and implement long term solutions which maximise educational outcomes for students.

Thus the QTU recommends that the federal government makes a commitment to fully deliver the needs based funding recommended by the Gonksi Report with an initial minimum commitment to six years of funding. This is the only way to remedy the inequalities of our education system and to ensure that every Australian student enjoys equality of opportunity.

As a result of the Federal Government’s Students First — A fairer funding agreement for schools initiative, Queensland has a real opportunity to target funding where schools need it most. The Great Results Guarantee will do just that. Almost $800 million over four years will be invested, making every school better off. That means a brighter future for our children. We know that throwing money indiscriminately at schools does not automatically translate into better results. That’s why in 2014, the Newman Government will spend $131 million on making sure children in the early years of school can read, write and add up. With the Great Results Guarantee, Principals and school communities will be empowered to decide how the money should be spent — depending on the unique situation in every Queensland school. Programs will be evidence-based, transparent and accountable to the school community. The Queensland Government encourages every parent to get involved and join your community’s debate about where the funding should go. Engaged school communities will only strengthen outcomes in the classroom. The guarantee is not only about ensuring there is a safety net to capture the students who are falling below the National Minimum Standards for literacy and numeracy. It is also about preventing our high performing students from sliding backwards and making sure that they continue to achieve better results. The Great Results Guarantee will make a real difference on the ground in schools and is part of a wider school improvement agenda being led by this Government, which is yet another reason for Queenslanders to be optimistic about the future of this great state.

Hon Campbell Newman MP Hon John-Paul Langbroek MP Premier of Queensland Minister for Education, Training and Employment More targeted funding for schools All 1233 state schools will receive their current level of funding plus a share of the $131 million, so every school will be better off. We already fund students based on the level of education need, and this money will flow in the same way. But we know that just spending more money doesn’t mean we get better results. That’s why the Great Results Guarantee will have a strategic outcomes-based approach. The Queensland Government believes community engagement is an essential part of that. This annual funding boost for Queensland state schools comes with a guarantee that every Queensland state school student will either: • achieve the National Minimum Standard for literacy and numeracy for their year level; or • have an evidence-based plan, developed by the school, in place to address their specific learning needs. The money The Federal Government is providing this additional funding to every state, territory and schooling sector, under its Students First – A fairer funding agreement for schools initiative. The funding will come with no strings attached because the Federal Government recognises Queensland knows how to make the most effective investment in our students’ education. Queensland Low Socio Economic Status National Partnership schools will continue to receive the agreed National Partnership rate of $800 per student in 2014, under the Great Results Guarantee. On average, schools will receive an extra $508 per student in Prep to Year 2. Primary schools will receive a total of $99 million. $2 million

Special Schools $30 million High Schools Primary Schools

Why target the early years? The extra investment in the early years will achieve the best long-term results, by tackling poor literacy and numeracy before it’s too late.

‘Excellent primary education provides the basis of improved secondary schooling outcomes. If we get it right early, Queensland will be a better place. It is important that, during the formative years of primary school, all Australian children acquire the academic and social foundations for success in later life’ — Queensland Association of State School Principals Many of the world’s highest performing education systems are characterised by strong investment in the early years of school, and according to leading education researchers1, early years intervention is the key to maximising the progress of students at each stage of learning. Later attempts to address learning and behavioural difficulties are less effective. What about high schools? High schools already receive almost $3000 more per student than primary schools. This is because high schools are more complex, catering for a diverse range of subject choices. But under the Great Results Guarantee, they’ll get $30 million – again with the emphasis on the early years of high school to help those entering secondary study with a low level of literacy and numeracy. The Guarantee State schools will enter into an agreement with the Department of Education, Training and Employment (DETE), while Independent Public Schools will establish an agreement with the School Council – both guarantee a commitment to improving student outcomes. Under this agreement, schools will be accountable for improving student performance and will have the flexibility and autonomy to decide how the funding should be spent. For example, this could include hiring specialist educators to provide additional support for students, targeted professional development for teachers, or the purchase of additional learning tools such as specialised literacy or numeracy programs. Principals will decide how student performance will be measured throughout the year and schools will be required to demonstrate how the extra funding is helping to maximise learning outcomes for all students. The agreement will be published by the school so that families and other members of the school community will be encouraged to have their say and contribute to the school’s improvement strategies. To give you an idea of what this agreement might look like, two different examples are included over the page.

State Primary School Guarantee (example only) Western Range State School is a medium-sized primary school of 400 students, located near a large regional town in Central Queensland. Most families have been settled in the area for several generations and the majority of students have been enrolled at the school since Prep. The school’s NAPLAN results show that students have improved over time in reading across all year levels, with Year 7 students improving in numeracy. The school community agreed that a renewed focus on early years numeracy was needed to improve performance. The Principal and school community agreed the extra money would be used to provide up to 50 hours of specialist educator coaching for small groups of students; an additional 30 hours of targeted professional development for each Prep to Year 2 teacher at the school and recognised online computer programs would be installed to provide on-going student support.

Independent Public School High School Guarantee (example only) As an Independent Public School, City View State High School has more autonomy to manage its resources and receives greater input from the community in the day-to-day operations of the school. The school has an extremely successful sports program; however, on comparison to ‘like schools’ on the My School website, the Year 9 NAPLAN results for reading are below the expectations of the school community. In a collaborative decision, it was agreed that the school would provide specialist reading educators to work weekly with all students needing additional reading support as well as providing up to eight days of professional development to expand identified English teachers’ capacity to teach reading.
