Question asked
- In relation to the ACT Government’s Good Consultation Guidelines that emphasise transparency and engagement with the community, can the Minister outline a specific plan for a genuine two-way consultation process and provide a clear timeline for that process. given that in 2024 plans for Majura Primary School’s expansion and modernisation were presented to the community as a final design with no consultation, and consultation was meant to begin in Term 2 2025.
- Could the project lead be in attendance at the eight Majura Primary School P&C meetings held each year to provide updates.
- Will the Minister commit to meeting minimum standards for Majura Primary School as part of the modernisation process, given that existing facilities at Majura Primary School fall far below the Education Directorate Infrastructure Standards (EDIS) for a school of its current size, let alone with the proposed 300 additional students.
