The $24,243,184 in funding is part of the state government’s school budget allocation for 2019.
Known as Resource Allocation Model (RAM) funding it allows school principals freedom to spend their allocated funds to deliver the best outcomes for students.
“Our schools can use the additional funds to continue to hire more teachers or administrative staff, for example, or to buy new iPads, instruments or sports equipment – whatever our school communities decide will best meet their unique learning and teaching needs,” Member for Dubbo Troy Grant said.
The funding is allocated through an increase to every school’s per-student allocation, increased funding to students from low socio-economic backgrounds and additional support for small schools with teaching principals.
The RAM funding was introduced in 2014 to ensure every school receives a fair and transparent allocation of the state’s public education budget.
