OrganisationReferenced in 3 bills
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.
Education (General Provisions) Amendment Bill 2025
This bill amends Queensland's Education (General Provisions) Act 2006 to reduce red tape for schools, parents and students, and to strengthen student safety when children transfer between schools. It implements a Royal Commission recommendation to make student transfer notes mandatory, streamlines consent for digital learning platforms, extends home education eligibility, and modernises the rules for Parents and Citizens' Associations.
Education (Queensland College of Teachers) Amendment Bill 2019
This bill creates a formal certification process so experienced Queensland teachers can be officially recognised as highly accomplished or lead teachers. It gives the Queensland College of Teachers the legal authority to run this voluntary certification, consistent with a national framework already operating in other states.
