David Gonski is the gentleman who co-authored the 'Gonski Report' on education funding. He says that he had thought when he began his research that the bureaucracies were responsible for education problems but when he met them he realised he had been wrong.
Watch his video.
Gonski's report highlighted the big gap in funding between wealthy and poor schools in Australia and provided a path to recovery. Julia Gillard was very keen to close the gap but Tony Abbott's 2014 budget will result in even greater disparities of wealth between schools.
