Back to school allowance poll

133774-83x0x657x491-465x349
 
The $50 per student Back to School Allowance will cease from 2009. The government has promised that $20 million worth of the funds previously allocated to the allowance will be directed to schools with low SES, Special Needs Learning Support and Student Assistance Scheme. Will the loss of the allowance have a negative impact on your family? Or do you think the funds would be better spent elsewhere?
