Education Family Conferences

In reply to the Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (5 July 2023). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. B.I. BOYER (Wright—Minister for Education, Training and Skills): I have been advised of the following:

Education family conferences continue to be an important part of the department's strategy to improving attendance. Education family conferences utilise a strengths-based, family-led approach to empower families to improve their children's attendance at school. It can be an effective mechanism to re-engage families in education when other approaches have been unsuccessful.
