Whilst equity funding to disadvantaged schools is a god-send, the work involved is huge. Principal Phillip Banks doesn't shy away from his tough gig.  The Victorian education system puts an unrelenting emphasis on PISA and Naplan results, but this principal knows that the wellbeing of his students is paramount and he has to get this right before any meaningful instruction can occur. Kudos to principals like Phillip Banks who courageously put first things first.
