Every parent wants the best for their kids, and that includes families in rural and regional Victoria.
But Liberal leader Jess Wilson and Nationals Leader Danny O’Brien are slashing investment in rural
regional schools.

They said it themselves - they want to spend only 25% on rural and regional school infrastructure.

That’s a cut from Labor's current investment – abandoning rural and regional families and letting
schools crumble.

So which schools will lose out because of Jess and Danny's cuts?

Ararat Primary School?

Daylesford Primary School?

Maryborough Education Centre?

Stawell Primary School?

When Jess Wilson’s Liberals were last in government, they cut $1 billion from education, and we know
they want to do it again.

It’s all part of Jess Wilson’s plan to cut $40 billion from the state budget - because you just can't make
$40 billion in cuts without cutting schools.

Victoria doesn't need brutal Liberal cuts.

Victorian children deserve a world-class education at their local public school – and only Labor can be
trusted to deliver it.

Quotes attributable to Deputy Premier and Minister for Education Ben Carroll
“Jess Wilson and Danny O’Brien need to come clean – which rural and regional public school is first on
the chopping block?”
“Whilst the Liberals and Nationals have a plan for school cuts, Labor has a plan for the future of our
kids. That means building 126 new public schools and upgrading 2,400 schools – the most in the
nation.”

Quotes attributable to Member for Ripon Martha Haylett
“I grew up in the Jeff Kennett era when our public schools were closed and teachers were sacked. The
public schools I went to were run-down because of the Liberals, and now they’re threatening to do it
all again.”
“Labor has transformed schools across Ripon, giving our country kids world-class learning spaces.
We can’t risk more Liberal school cuts in the future that will impact our kids.”
