flag Australia's student performance is declining despite more funding, with major equity gaps and global lag in literacy and numeracy.

flag Australia’s education system faces a crisis in 2026, with student performance declining despite increased funding, particularly in literacy and numeracy. flag About one in three students fail to meet basic standards, with worse outcomes in regional, remote, and First Nations communities. flag International assessments show Australian 15-year-olds have fallen behind global peers, contributing to a productivity slowdown and widespread skill gaps in the workforce. flag A new national funding agreement sets targets to improve outcomes and close equity gaps by 2031, but success depends on transparent accountability, public reporting, and sustained political commitment to reforms in teaching quality, curriculum, and teacher training. flag Without decisive action, economic and social progress will remain at risk.
