To the Honourable the President and Members of the Senate in Parliament assembled:

The petition of the citizens of Australia undersigned shows:

A well funded Public Education system is vital to the maintenance of a fair and democratic Australian society.

We need our public schools to be well resourced.

This requires the Federal Government to provide a fairer model for funding Australian schools.

Your petitioners therefore request the Senate to:

Ensure that the funding policies of the Commonwealth Government are reformed to provide increased and fairer funding for public schools.

by Senator Buckland (from 17 citizens).
