New South Wales has just signed up to better school plan.

New South Wales has just signed up to Labor’s plan to make our schools the best they can be; a plan that will leave no child behind regardless of their background or circumstance.

Today's announcement shows that our children’s future is more important than politics. Big reforms are never easy, but future generations of Australians deserve the best possible education.

But this is just the beginning. Every child must have the opportunity to live up to their potential, and Labor’s plan does just that. Now we need the other state and territory leaders to sign up before 30 June.

Thousands of people have already let their state or territory leader know they want better schools. If you haven't shown your support yet, do so by clicking here.

Thanks to this agreement, 1.1 million students in NSW will now get to see the benefits of around $5 billion in additional investment over six years.

This means making sure new teachers get the support they need in the classroom, more support staff to help students who need it and a priority on reading in the early years of school.
