The Coalition Government has allocated $40 million for the Back to School Support initiative, which is intended for families with household incomes of less than $50,000.

The $200 support per child has been extended and has assisted over 200,000 students across two rounds, ranging from Early Childhood Care and Education to Year 13.

Retailers report that parents use the $200 per child to purchase essential school items such as uniforms, bags, stationery, shoes, and lunch boxes.

This financial support has significantly alleviated the burden on thousands of families, enabling children to enter school ready to learn and succeed.

The Coalition Government remains committed to providing crucial support to families and investing in the future of the nation’s children.
