Minister acknowledges children are being left behind in their educational journey

Minister Jason Clare has recognised that children are falling behind in school and that more students are disengaged than before.

True family participation decreases absenteeism and school refusal and improves children' social, emotional, behavioural, and academic results, according to over 50 years of study.

Thus, the Federal Department must engage with ACSSO to determine what is required to quickly enhance the educational experience and results for all government school children. Especially those slipping behind.
