LegislationReferenced in 5 bills
Education (Accreditation of Non-State Schools) Bill 2017
This bill replaces Queensland's 2001 law on non-State school accreditation with a modernised framework. It streamlines how independent and Catholic schools become accredited, gives the Non-State Schools Accreditation Board responsibility for deciding government funding eligibility, and strengthens inspection and investigation powers.
Education (Overseas Students) Bill 2017
This bill replaces Queensland's old overseas students law, creates a new statutory regime for international secondary student exchange programs, and sets up the legal framework for the new senior assessment system and ATAR that began with Year 11 students in 2019. It also makes minor amendments to home education rules, school councils and school terminology.
Education and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2026
This bill makes a broad set of changes across Queensland's education and arts portfolios. For education, it streamlines how private schools are accredited, lets schools use temporary sites in emergencies, formally recognises schooling in youth detention, supports programs that re-engage disengaged students, and lets Queensland private schools deliver the senior certificate overseas. For the arts, it modernises governance of five state arts bodies and makes scalping tickets at QPAC an offence.
Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2016
This bill makes a range of technical changes to Queensland's tax, superannuation, and government planning laws. It tightens a stamp duty home concession rule, backdates several tax exemptions that have been run administratively, lets State and Local Government employees choose their own super fund, opens QSuper and LGIAsuper to everyone, and cuts duplicated Queensland Plan reporting.
Education (Overseas Students) Bill 2018
This bill modernises Queensland's regulation of schools that teach overseas students, introduces external exams for senior high school students, updates home education rules, and fixes an error that stopped regional shops from opening on Easter Saturday.
