Education Amendment Bill
Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.
This bill amends the Education Act 1989 and the related Education (Update) Amendment Act 2017. The public policy objectives of the bill are to strengthen the quality of school education; improve the governance of tertiary education institutions; support the introduction of free tertiary education; improve the new strategic planning and reporting framework for State and State integrated schools; and resolve errors and omissions in the two Acts that this bill amends.MP in charge
