Question on Notice No. 432 Asked on 5 June 2013 Question on Notice No. 432 Asked on 5 June 2013 Ms Palaszczuk asked the Minister for Education, Training and Employment (MR LANGBROEK) – QUESTION: Will the Minister provide details of all Queensland schools that the Newman Government believes will be worse off under the National Plan for School Improvement (the Gonski funding reforms) and the modelling and methodology used for making these assessments? ANSWER: I thank the Member for her question. I have been advised by my Department that: The figure of 300 schools comes from a very large and complex calculator tool provided to the Queensland Government by the Australian Government on 17 April 2013. The Australian Government’s proposed national funding model centres around a base per-student amount intended to reflect the cost of educating a student to an acceptable standard. This amount is then topped up with values for a range of loadings designed to address disadvantage factors affecting the school and its students. The Schooling Resource Standard (SRS) model proposed by the Australian Government calculates a theoretical amount of funding for each school in Australia, using historical My School financial and non-financial data and other estimates for the period 2010 to 2012 and projecting this out to 2019 and beyond. When discussing schools that may be ‘worse off’ (Table 1) my Department is using the latest Australian Government calculator to compare what a school’s current level of resourcing would be if indexed according to the standard rates for Queensland schools, versus what the school would receive under the proposed SRS model. Queensland’s existing resourcing models for state schools and non-state schools are already needs-based, reflecting factors such as school size, location and student demographics. Schools deemed to be above their theoretical SRS funding level would receive a fixed minimum 3% level of indexation (plus enrolment growth) over a number of years to ensure their funding grows more slowly than other schools until they reach a lower relative level of funding. A broad range of school types would receive the minimum 3% level of indexation (plus enrolment growth), including both high and low socio-economic schools. Hence, a substantial number of disadvantaged schools would receive the lowest level of indexation and no additional funding over this time. Some schools would be fixed at this minimum indexation level for several decades. Schools deemed to be at their theoretical SRS level would receive annual indexation of 3.6% (plus enrolment growth). Schools deemed to be below their theoretical SRS level would receive additional recurrent funding associated with the SRS model as well as annual indexation of 3.6% (plus enrolment growth). This additional funding would be based on theoretical funding levels calculated using a complex set of assumptions and equations. More details on the loadings equations and selected other aspects of the proposed SRS model are available online at www.betterschools.gov.au/funding . The latest available version of the calculator also includes a set of ‘transition rate’ assumptions which are designed to slow the rate of funding increase over the period 2014-2019 so that Queensland only achieves 95% of the total SRS by 2019. This would result in a further substantial government funding increase required from 2020. The figure of 300 ‘worse off’ schools is calculated as at the 2019 school year and using the 17 April 2013 version of the Australian Government calculator. The number of such schools is of less significance than their characteristics, as the list contains a substantial number of disadvantaged schools including low socio-economic schools. Conversely, many large, metropolitan high-achieving schools would gain substantially from the proposed SRS model. In summary, under the Australian Government’s SRS model a substantial number of disadvantaged schools would be fixed on the lowest level of indexation for many years and would therefore receive a lower level of annual funding increase relative to most other schools, including many large, metropolitan high-achieving schools. Some schools would be fixed at this minimum indexation level for decades. The Queensland Government is one of many stakeholders that have repeatedly asked the Australian Government to publish the school-level results of its proposed SRS model in order to provide greater transparency and certainty. The Australian Government claims this information remains subject to confidentiality while bilateral negotiations continue with states, territories and non-government sectors. This situation is creating considerable uncertainty for schools needing to plan and budget for the 2014 school year, including non-government schools needing to plan their 2014 fee levels. The Queensland Government has not been provided with an updated calculator tool since 17 April 2013. This calculator tool has not yet been amended to reflect changes to the proposed national funding model as negotiated between the New South Wales Government and Australian Government in April 2013, nor does it reflect subsequent changes announced through media as part of the Australian Government’s ongoing negotiations with other states, territories and sectors.

All aspects of development on a Local Heritage Place in a Local Heritage Register under the Queensland Heritage Act 1992, are code assessable (unless City Plan 2000 requires impact assessment). Those code assessable applications are assessed against the Code in Schedule 2 of the Queensland Heritage Regulation 2003 and the Heritage Place Code in City Plan 2000. City Plan 2000 makes some aspects of development impact assessable on the site of a Heritage Place and a Heritage Precinct. Heritage Places and Heritage Precincts are identified in the Heritage Register of the Heritage Register Planning Scheme Policy in City Plan 2000. Those impact assessable applications are assessed under the relevant provisions of the City Plan 2000. All aspects of development on land adjoining a Heritage Place or Heritage Precinct are assessable solely under City Plan 2000. ********** For building work on a Local Heritage Place assessable against the Building Act 1975, the Local Government is a concurrence agency. ********** Amendments to the Local Heritage Register are located at the back of the Register.

  • MSA Newsletter
    MSA Newsletter A newsletter for Member Schools of Marist Schools Australia published fortnightly during term time From Brother Michael Green 18 October 2011 Dear Members of the Marist Family Even in deep Melbourne, a game of rugby was the cause of the normal evening prayer time of our community being abandoned. We are usually quite faithful to our Sunday evening pre-dinner ‘holy half-hour’ in front of the Blessed Sacrament, so the desertion of our spiritual duties was not done lightly. This was not just any game, of course; the Wallabies were taking on the All Blacks in the semi-final in the Rugby World Cup. National pride on the line, and all that. Code rivalry laid aside. One confrere had organised to supply each of the rest of us with little Aussie flags to wave as all the Australian tries were scored, and a large ensign was draped on the wall. We even had pies and sauce. All was set. We’ll get over it. In time. It is a good thing to have hopes and dreams, and ones that are even more important than desperately wanting our footy team to win. For us who spend our lives in the Christian the education of young people, the sowing of hope is the stuff of what we do. At this time of year, in particular, when graduation ceremonies and end-of-year rituals take place in our schools, there is a heightened experience of this. At the end of last term, most of our New South Wales colleagues celebrated the graduation of Year 12, and during Term 4 those in other parts of the country will do the same.
