If budget cuts force pink slips, many districts leaders may be able to protect their most effective teachers, especially in schools where turnaround is high.

As in several other states dependent on tax revenue from natural resources, Wyoming legislators are looking for ways to make millions of dollars in education budget cuts.

Reconnecting with mentors, friends, coaches and professors, these football greats reflected on the experiences that they carried with them well beyond their college years. While they all share different stories, their journeys to the NFL were each met with adversity, and whether on or off the field, these obstacles served as tests for each individual athlete to overcome. These challenges made them stronger, earning them valuable lessons and helping them create special connections with the university they will always call ‘home.’

Implementing the Basin Plan requires the Murray Darling Basin Authority to evaluate the economic, social and environmental outcomes directly attributable to the Basin Plan. This report draws together all the data and modelling used to separate the Basin Plan effects (both positive and negative) from all the other drivers of change at the community scale in the southern Basin. This work built upon the analysis undertaken by the MDBA to support the Northern Basin Review. The community-level analysis adopted by the MDBA complements the industry and broad Basin-scale summary of social and economic conditions presented in the 2017 Basin Plan Evaluation report. A strong reliance is placed on the community outcomes as this represents the finer scale relationships between the types of irrigated production and local businesses, and between the towns and the surrounding farming communities. Further work is required to align these community-level outcomes with the observed regional, industry and Basin scale changes.

Consumers who only make the minimum repayment on their credit card could be paying hundreds of dollars a year in high interest payments. To help, BETA partnered with the Treasury and Westpac to see if reminders could encourage consumers to pay earlier and save money. We found any type of SMS reminder resulted in a $134 (28 per cent) increase in repayments in the following month, compared to those who received no message. However, different SMS messages all had a similar impact and we were unable to detect an effect from sending email reminders. Overall, the findings suggest that sending an SMS reminder to credit card consumers before their payment due date is a simple, cost-effective way to improve their financial wellbeing.

This paper assesses whether the Newstart Allowance for unemployed people should be increased. It investigates the relationship of the Newstart Allowance to Average Weekly Earnings, the Federal Minimum Wage, and Australian poverty lines, and considers the typical the duration of unemployment and long term unemployment, duration of time on income support, overseas allowances, cost of living, and a comparison with policy makers' remuneration. It finds that the value of the allowance has eroded since it was first set and that unemployment for many is not a transitional situation, and concludes that an increase is warranted to bridge the gap to the poverty line.

The use of behavioural insights in public policy has traditionally focused on small, low cost 'nudges' to improve communications, increase compliance and enhance the way services are delivered. But BETA has begun to look beyond to identify a smaller set of 'richer veins' where BI can offer high financial and social impact. These areas includes consumer choice, financial decision-making and personal wellbeing.

This researchprojectimplemented a randomizedcontrolledtrial ofthe SEAM program in Terms 3 and 4 ofthe 2016 school year. The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of the SEAM program. The study enrolled 448 treatment group students who were referred to SATOs for potential SEAM intervention, and 448 matched control group students who were not referred to SATOs. Approximately one-third of treatment group students received a compulsory conference notice, approximately one-third of treatment students' families signed an attendance plan, about 20% had a compulsory conference take place, and payment was suspended for approximately 5% of treatment students. No significant differences following any of these interventions were observed between treatment and control students.
