Yesterday Queensland became the last state in Australia to sign on to the decade-long Better and Fairer Schools Agreement (BFSA) with the Commonwealth.

It means every state is on track to hit the minimum funding levels recommended all those years ago.

But exactly when those levels will be reached, what was agreed to in order to land the deal and the other basic terms have not been released, leading to calls for greater transparency (more on that later).

I don't really get from the article whether its just Queensland thats the lagard, and now they're also on the gonski reform path but will be behind everyone else, or whether the other jurisdictions had to wait for Queensland, and now gonski can be implemented in all States at the same time?
