With just one week until the Federal Election, your parent body might be interested in where the major political parties stand in relation to Catholic school education.

The National Catholic Education Commission (NCEC) put four questions to the Coalition, Labor and the Greens. Their responses can be accessed on the Elections page of the CCSP website. Here, you will also find resources that your parents may find useful in the lead-up to the election, including CCSP Fact Sheets on engaging with candidates, hosting a forum, FAQs and Catholic school funding.

We also have School Funding Facts and FAQs prepared by NCEC.

Finally, the Archdiocese of Sydney has released a Federal Election Guide with  detailed responses from the Greens, the Liberal/National Coalition, the Australian Labor Party, the Australian Conservatives and One Nation to help Catholic voters make a more informed choice when voting in the election. It can be accessed via the link in the media release and is also in this week’s print edition of The Catholic Weekly.
