201 441 Centre for the Economics of Education and Training 442 Catholic Education Commission Victoria Ltd 443 Mr David Mansell 444 Ms Louise Brown 445 Name Withheld Representative sample of campaign submissions The committee received over 2500 submissions from individual principals, teachers, parents, students and community members through a campaign run by the Australian Education Union. Due to the large number of submissions received the committee decided to publish a representative sample and to table the entirety in Parliament. In general, these submissions raised the disparity in funding received between private and public schools and the difficulty in adequately resourcing public schools with the funding that is currently appropriated. Many of the submissions called for the entire six years of funding for the National Plan for School Improvement to be provided to schools and that this funding should also be provided on a needs basis to effectively support, for example, regional schools and schools with children with disabilities. The submissions are categorised as follows: ACT: 65 total submissions Committee selection comprises: Secondary Teacher Parent/Teacher Parent/Teacher NSW: 2236 total submissions Committee selection comprises: Teacher Pre-service teacher Retired principal Retired principal/Parent Parent/Assistant principal NT: 1 total submission Unable to publish as submitter requested confidentiality
