Attention-seeker Jeff Kennett thinks we forgot when he was Vic Premier he shut-down a 700 student Coburg school on Bell St Melbourne Victoria AND sold it to an apartment building developer mate; a crook that sent investors broke. The site remains abandoned to this day.

22 years since Jeff Kennett closed inner-city schools and with the Napthine government closing more in the middle-ring and selling the ‘‘spare land’’, future watchers are querying how a city whose population is soaring can afford to lose schools and land. https://www.theage.com.au/education/school-closures-and-land-sales-what-have-we-learnt-20140612-zs547.html
When Kennett shut *350 State Schools* in the 1990s & later sold the land, he failed families raising children inner-city &, shellshocked the suburbs.
Predictably, while JK sold his closed schools to "residential" developers, it thereby added to the demand for new schools. #JKfail
