The Minns Labor Government is working to make sure every student gets the world class education they deserve, right where they live.
We are building more classrooms, hiring more teachers and lifting student outcomes across NSW.
BETTER SCHOOLS ACROSS THE EASTERN SUBURBS
We’ve delivered the new co-educational Randwick High School with new science labs and science classrooms, new and improved Technology and Applied Sciences facilities, an indoor and outdoor Fitness Learning Hub and shade improvements.
Now, we’re delivering major upgrades to broaden student opportunities including 10 new classrooms, a new lecture theatre, a refurbished performance hub, a marine science learning hub, and a new workshop.
We’ve also been improving local public schools including Bronte, Clovelly, Coogee, Kensington, Rainbow Street, Randwick, and South Coogee.
MORE TEACHERS FOR OUR CHILDREN
Because of the former Liberal Government’s unfair wages cap and neglect of public education, teacher vacancies reached an all time high, resulting in 10,000 merged and cancelled classes across NSW every day.
When the Minns Labor Government was elected one of our priorities was to rebuild our education system. Just in the last two and a half years we’ve:
- Delivered the largest pay rise in a generation to all of NSW’s public school teachers;
- Reduced teacher vacancies across NSW by 61 per cent meaning our kids are spending more time learning in class and receiving more one-on-one attention from their teachers; and
- Nearly halved the number of merged and cancelled classes by getting more teachers into the classroom.
Rebuilding our education system takes time but we are committed to getting the job done.
