Students with disabilities attending a non-government school do not get a fair go. They do not receive the same funding to support their learning as they would if they were in a government school.

During the 2010 election campaign we highlighted this gross injustice as our top policy priority. The result was that for the first time, equity for students with disabilities in non-government schools received serious attention. It would be a travesty if this issue was lost amid the difficulties of minority government.
