PwC Expert Advisory Panel
Today the PwC Expert Advisory Panel met to plan for the last steps of this two year project to inform the Australian Government about funding for students with disabilities across all educational sectors.
The project has four steps:
1. Evidence - literature review
2. Good practice school survey
3. Regression analysis of sector and school survey results to cost support for students with disability
4. Professional judgement of 40 case studies, then a Delphi approach to come to consensus about costs for reasonable and better practice adjustments (June - July 2022).
My contribution will conclude in September 2022 at the final meeting.
