Here is another disturbing aspect related to the Budget.

Elite unis would benefit from scholarship scheme

August 31, 2014 - 12:15AM

Elite universities with poor records of enrolling disadvantaged students would be the big winners under the federal government's new Commonwealth scholarship scheme, according to new modelling.

Regional and suburban universities โ€“ which typically enrol more students from poor backgrounds โ€“ may have only 20 per cent of the funds to spend on scholarships for disadvantaged students as their elite counterparts, according to the National Tertiary Education Union modelling.

The federal government last week introduced legislation into Parliament that, if passed, would allow universities to set their own fees and reduce Commonwealth course funding by 20 per cent.

Universities would be required to spend $1 of every $5 in increased fees on equity scholarships for disadvantaged students.

The union's modelling found that a regional university with 30 per cent of disadvantaged students would have $1733 to spend on scholarships for each such student under a deregulated fee system.

An inner-city university with 10 per cent disadvantaged students would have $5200 to spend on scholarships for each disadvantaged student. A university with 5 per cent of disadvantaged students would have $10,400.

abbott is also trying to rush through a new version of workchoices

 

Tony Abbottโ€™s new laws bring back some of the worst parts of Workchoices. Among other things, the bill:

 

  • Reintroduces unfair individual contracts that can cut take home pay including weekend and penalty rates
  • Gives employers a veto over industrial action.
  • Allows employers to not pay-out some annual leave if youโ€™re sacked or leave a job.
  • Gives mining and construction employers a special deal that allows them to write their own Enterprise Agreements.
  • Reduces the rights of workers to talk to their union at work if they need help.
