Summary Note	On 16th December 2010, the Commonwealth Government released an 'Emerging Issues Paper' that summarised key themes of growing importance to its national Review of Funding for Schooling. This discussion paper aims to obtain community feedback on the NSW Department of Education and Community's response to the Commonwealth Government's key themes. It provides new evidence and data to explore two examples of how greater analytical clarity can be achieved in identifying educational need. The first is evidence of the wide variation in need that exists in current equity categories such as students from a Language Background Other Than English. The second is substantial evidence that individual student disadvantage is increased by concentrations of disadvantage at the school level. The NSW DEC welcomes feedback on these and related issues, such as: What measures of need should the Commonwealth Government consider in assessing the resource needs of schools? Do school sectors and systems have unique costs of provision and how can these be estimated? What other evidence can be used to refine our understanding of the resourcing needs of students? What factors should be included in indices that assess individual student or family educational disadvantage? [p.1, ed]
