Do you give a Gonski? In this episode the team unpacks the debate raging about education to uncover what really needs to be done to improve our schools and universities.

Hosts Jess Irvine and Matt Wade are joined by two of Australia’s leading economics commentators, the Sydney Morning Herald’s Ross Gittins and The Age’s Peter Martin to give their verdict on Malcolm Turnbull's Gonski 2.0 reforms, which have passed through parliament largely unscathed.

Cabinet minister, Christopher Pyne, hailed the legislation as "the most significant reform to school education in Australia's history".

But will the changes live up to the hype?

We also unpick the government’s proposed reforms to the university sector.
