Three school representatives from Nanango electorate will represent the region at the upcoming Education Accord Summit to be held in Brisbane on September 25.
Every State MP was given the opportunity to select a teacher, parent and principal to represent their electorate at the day-long summit which aims to develop a “Queensland Education Accord”.
The three Nanango Electorate community representatives are:
- Mr Michael Nayler – principal of St Mary’s Catholic College
- Mr Rob Cantle – Yarraman P-9; and
- Ms Debbie Jackson – Kingaroy State High School P&C
Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington said the Education Accord would be an historic document, setting down a 30-year vision for school education in Queensland.
“The Accord is about implementing a strong plan to ensure our children can have a brighter future,” she said.
“By providing better education today, we open up access to a world of greater opportunity for our children to have a better job, to own their home and an improved quality of life.
“We have a vision for our State and want to set up not only the next generation, but those that come after it.”
Parents, teachers and students can also have a say online
More information about the Education Accord is also available on the Department of Education website
NB. A spokeswoman for the Callide Electorate Office say three nominations for that electorate had also been selected but were yet to be confirmed.
