AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of the question.
Supplementary funding was provided to regional education offices to assist in
the management of specific cases of students with challenging behaviour. It has
been used for a range of targeted interventions at the discretion of the
regional executive director. This funding is in addition to the $16.445 million
schools receive for behaviour management as part of the school support program
resource allocation.
