Briony Scott’s husband ran the NSW dept of education, the Sydney Morning Herald and the ABC.
This is exactly how the con of excessive public funds to private schools was weaponised in the public arena.

Howard's never ending gift of wealth transfer. Until he changed the way private schools could fiddled the figures this school would not have recieved 1cent of federal funding.

When you think about it that’s not their total of funds that just how their financial position improved in 12 mths. I worked in rural govt secondary schools if you had a small gain it was like $10k which was already earmarked and rapidly gone. Why can’t this be sold as utterly unfair and wasteful.
