| Message | The current Education system in Beluzia is holding back the potential of our young people, through over-regulation, prevention of business and innovation within our educational sector, our young people do not have the best resources at their disposal. I know that the government and Labor Party will reject our forward thinking approach to the Beluzian education system but by doing so they are setting us back amongst international competition and making our students receive a second rate education. On the matter of leaving education, if our students believe that Schooling is not for them by 16 we believe they are mature enough to choose a path of their own in a sector they desire, why would we want to hold back a student that has a particular passion for world class engineering or digital communication by making them learn maths and sciences until 18, it simply makes no sense.
