QuestionView source ↗
I refer to the recently released post-compulsory education review, which provided recommendations aimed at improving the flexibility and relevance of schooling in years 11 and 12. I also refer to the statement by the Curriculum Council of Western Australia that the proposals cannot be implemented successfully without additional resources. (1) What will be the cost of the additional resources? (2) Will the minister guarantee to fully fund the implementation of those recommendations? Mr CARPENTER

(1) The cost of implementing those recommendations has not been detailed at this stage. This is a matter that must be worked through from budget to budget. I will be brief, because there is time for another question. The post-compulsory education review was established under the former Government. It has come up with a wonderful blueprint for change that will benefit education. I am sure that members on both sides of this House support the recommendations. They will be implemented and funded. If we do not accept our responsibilities in education, we will let down the young people of Western Australia. (2) From memory, the recommendations from the post-compulsory education review will be implemented over a period of eight years or more. Obviously, all changes must be fully funded, otherwise they will not happen, or, if they do happen, they will not provide the best possible outcome, which is one of the issues that elections are fought on. I give a commitment that whatever changes are enacted as a result of the post-compulsory education review to improve flexibility in years 11 and 12, they will be properly funded. I am sure that at some stage in the future, if there is a change of government, members from the other side of the House will do the same.
