¹The Melbourne Declaration on Educational Goals for Young Australians (2008) replaced the National Goals for Schooling in the Twenty-first Century (the Adelaide Declaration, adopted in 1999), which in turn replaced the original National Goals for Schooling in Australia (Hobart Declaration, adopted in 1989). ² A full explanation of the objectives can be found in the Melbourne Declaration, pp. 6-9. ³ References and links to the National Education Convention in this report refer to the revised agreement, which entered into force in July 2012. In accordance with the provisions of the School Assistance Act 2008 and the Regulations, the accountability framework for schools and non-public school systems is in line with the NEA framework for the public school sector. The new agreement puts an end to the unfair practice of funding primary schools at a lower rate than secondary schools. From 1 January, both will be financed at the same rate. This results in an increase in funding of approximately $100 per student for public elementary schools. These schools will now be even better able to do their vital work. (Time elapsed) Given the different national contexts, each country`s reform challenges cannot simply be transferred to another country or system. Nevertheless, countries face many similar challenges and are implementing reforms in similar areas.
The 2015 edition of the Education Policy Outlook provides a comparative overview of policy trends. It examines the specific reforms adopted by the OECD over the past seven years to help countries learn from each other and choose the reforms best suited to their needs and context.

This will be achieved by strengthening accountability for results through independent, evidence-based monitoring, evaluation and reporting on the performance of all governments. This document is one of the first two supplementary annual reports on the performance of Australian governments in achieving the objectives of the new national agreements. As part of the National Education Accord, Australian governments have agreed to work together to ensure that all Australian students acquire the knowledge and skills needed to participate effectively in society and employment in a globalised economy. This report provides a comparative analysis of baseline data for indicators to monitor government performance against the five outcomes of the agreement. The content is as follows: Introduction; Convention on National Education; the context of the performance; Report on results – commitment and benefits of school education, reading and computing power, international excellence, level of education and transition to work and study, achievement of COAG objectives; Improve the performance reporting framework. The agreement sets out the conditions for commonwealth education funding to Australian states and territories for the period 2009-2013.
It outlines the roles and responsibilities of the Australian government and the states and territories, as well as a framework for performance reporting. These, together with the agreed policy and reform guidelines, should contribute to the following outcomes: • all children are involved in and benefit from school; • Young people meet basic standards of literacy and numeracy, and overall literacy levels improve • Australian students excel in international comparison • Formal education promotes social inclusion and reduces children`s educational disadvantages. especially indigenous children • Young people create a successful transition from school to work and further education. Designing effective monitoring and evaluation of education systems by 2030: a comprehensive synthesis of policies and practices This is a preliminary version, not to quote Senator HUTCHINS – Mr President, I am asking a supplementary question. Can the minister inform the Senate of how COAG`s education program will further the government`s social justice objectives? The Melbourne Declaration was supported by its companion document, the MCEETYA Four-Year Plan 2009-2012, which identified key strategies agreed by Australian governments in each policy area. This has been brought into line with important Agreements of the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) and other national agreements. .
