Fix this textPREMIER
Fix this textDear Mr. Wran,
Fix this textWe remind you of your election promise that:—
Fix this text“By the year 1980 all Primary and Junior Secondary schools would have a maximum class
Fix this textsize of 30 students and Senior Secondary Schools a class size of 25.”
Fix this textThe teachers are available. 1000 extra will come from the CAE’s and universities and there are
Fix this textnearly 1800 unemployed teachers available for work NOW!
Fix this textThe loan allocations for education as announced in the Treasurer’s loan speech cause serious
Fix this textconcern for all interested in the future of our primary and secondary schools. The increase of
Fix this text7.2%, when compared with the 18% average increase, indicates a major fall in priority for the
Fix this textschools area. This is of great importance to parents and teachers.
Fix this textThe increased allocation for technical and further education is welcomed. The figure for this
Fix this textarea shows an increase of $6.8 million to $24.8 million as against the smaller percentage increase
Fix this textfor schools of only $lO million to $149 million.
Fix this textYour Budget to be announced on October 12 must provide funds for the reduction of class
Fix this textsizes and the employment of unemployed teachers.
Fix this textYours sincerely,
