School Signage

767 Mr BOYER (Wright) (27 August 2021). How many sites across SA will need to have signage changed to reflect year 7 moving into high school next year?

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education): I have been advised of the following:

In preparation for the move of Year 7 to high school, the Department for Education identified 27 primary school sites with registered names that referenced Year 7, and an additional nine primary school sites with logos or signage that reference Year 7.

The department is providing each of the 36 primary schools $2,100 to assist with the costs associated with changing their names.

No secondary sites were identified as referencing year 8-12 in their official name.
