The headmaster of The King's School has accused the NSW government of creating inconsistent, confusing COVID-19 sport rules that “make no sense” and advantage public schools over private ones.
King's headmaster Tony George said NSW Sport and NSW Education had chosen to implement state health guidelines differently, leading to a tighter ban on school teams than club ones. “What we have been seeking from the NSW government for the past week is consistency,” he wrote. Sydney Boys is a government school, so must adhere to the rules, while sources said Sydney Grammar - an academically high-achieving private school - is advocating caution to ensure students do not get sick before HSC exams begin.
