School of the Air cuts has not been thought through
Hon Alison Xamon MLC, Greens spokesperson for Education, today reiterated her call for the Minister for Education to reverse her decision to abolish the School of the Air (SOTA).
“It is clear that quite simply the groundwork has not been done to justify the announcement to close SOTA,” Ms Xamon said.
“We know that no consultation took place before the decision was announced and that as a result the decision has raised more questions than it answers. The fact that this has occurred just before Christmas leaving families distressed is appalling.
