State MP for Miranda Eleni Petinos says $8.7 million in budget allocations have been earmarked for schools in her electorate next year.
Ms Petinos said the budget allocation was part of $10.1 billion in Gonski funding to be delivered to public schools in 2021.
She said the distribution of funding through the Resource Allocation Model (RAM) ensured the best possible learning opportunities were provided to directly benefit the 2021 student cohort.
"2021 will be the eighth year that the Resource Allocation Model has delivered funding certainty to schools so that improvement will touch every classroom, every teacher and impact every student," Ms Petinos said.
"Needs-based funding underpins the great strength of public education - equity of opportunity - and will ensure schools in the Miranda electorate continue to flourish and deliver those opportunities.
"This funding will deliver support where it is needed the most, to students and schools with the greatest need."
The funding will be predominantly allocated through the seven RAM loadings, socio-economic, Aboriginal, low-level adjustment for disability, English language proficiency, location, per capita and professional learning.
