LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT
CENTRES
925. Hon DONNA FARAGHER to the Minister for Education and
Training:
I refer to the five language
development centres operated by the Department of Education.
For each centre, will the minister
advise —
(a) the current 2021 enrolment
capacity;
(b) the total number of enrolment
applications received for the 2021 school year; and
(c) the total number of students
currently enrolled?
Hon SUE
ELLERY replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(a) Language
development centres are typically co-located with other primary schools. For
each language development centre, enrolments are influenced by available
classroom accommodation at each school site. This may vary from year to year.
(b)–(c)
The next part of the answer is in tabular
form, and I seek leave to have it incorporated into Hansard.
