Building the Education Revolution

The Government is engaging in the greatest school modernisation project in Australia's history. Every Australian school — primary and secondary, government and non‑government — will benefit from the $14.7 billion investment in our schools.

All primary schools will receive funding for major infrastructure projects like multi‑purpose halls. There is also funding for every school for small‑scale infrastructure and/or minor refurbishment projects including covered outdoor learning areas and specialised infrastructure for students with disabilities or special needs. Select secondary schools will also receive funding to build science laboratories or language learning centres.

This investment in education, skills and training continues the Government's commitment to the Education Revolution. It will stimulate the economy through infrastructure spending to support jobs now, while delivering educational outcomes that boost the productivity and the prosperity of our nation for the future.
