The CLP Government says it will put parents of students who consistently fail to attend school under income management, with critics arguing reinstating the old policy will cause more problems, while questions have also been raised about how the NT Government will enforce the policy and whether the Federal Government was involved in its development.
Critics called the government “lazy” for reviving the program rather than looking at new ways to achieve better education outcomes.
Been tried before and continually fails to achieve the unrealistic objectives linked to it.
They have no idea what they’re doing.
Deliberate dysfunction keeps them in a job.
No surprise when you put a hairdresser in charge of ‘education’ policy.
Not sending your kids to school is child abuse.
And it is an offense under the Education Act incurring a fine of about $370.
Ah well. At least we’re clear now that ‘income management’ is seen by NTG as a punishment.
