Possum,So, while the briefing is in fact cutting costs in the area of class size, what you are saying is that the money saved will be moved elsewhere in the education system? Hence, overall this should not be viewed as a cost cutting exercise, just a redirection of funding?Sounds reasonable to me. So long as the education budget at the end of the year is no lower that the previous year, then costs have not been cut.What do you think “value- add data” refers to, and do you tihnk a more proosssifnalieed workforce means they will be investing more in teacher training and professional development?
