About this Submission

NSW Business Chamber welcomes the NSW Government’s Great Teaching, Inspired Learning Discussion Paper and recognises that teaching is the single largest in-school determinant of success at school. NSW Business Chamber supports a strong commitment to teacher quality, including developing strong processes for selecting and training teachers, paying good starting compensation, and carefully managing the status of the teaching profession. NSW Business Chamber recognises research shows reducing class sizes and increasing the overall level of investment in the education system does not result in improved outcomes.
