One in every five children in Australia are not completing their full 13 years of basic education.
That’s according to new data released overnight in the Productivity Commission’s Report on Government Services.
The dropout rate of students has reached a 10-year-high with just over half of all young Australians leaving school to participate in further education or enter full-time work.
GUEST: Dr Jordana Hunter, Education Program Director at the Grattan Institute.
