Three leading economists discussed the evidence for how education quality drives economic growth. They also reviewed the evidence that the most important policy interventions are to improve teacher quality rather than school building improvements or class size reductions.
The panel consisted of Colm Harmon, Director of the Geary Institute; Saul Eslake, Program Director Productivity Growth, Grattan Institute and Ben Jensen, Program Director School Education, Grattan Institute, provided an in-depth look at the above issues.
Colm Harmon also participated in a workshop with the Victorian Government Department of Premier and Cabinet (DPC). A record of his presentation as part of the workshop was recorded by Grattan Institute.
