DENOUNCING Canberra's Gonski education reform plans as a "conski", the Queensland government has issued a list of schools throughout the state it claims would be worse off under the initiative.
Federal Minister for School Education Peter Garrett says the list is wrong and should be ignored.
Queensland Education Minister John-Paul Langbroek on Wednesday released a list of 102 schools throughout the state he claimed would be poorer under the Gonski plan.
Mr Langbroek said schools in the state, Catholic and independent sectors would receive 10 to 18 per cent less funding than they were currently receiving.
"We've had a number of different models given to us by the federal government that show significant issues for schools in Queensland," he said in a statement.
"That's why the premier and I have been so strident about this; we are not going to sign up to a plan where 102 Queensland schools will lose funding in real terms."
However, Mr Garrett insisted Canberra will guarantee every school in Australia will get its funding, plus indexation of three per cent as a bare minimum.
"The vast majority of schools will receive increases in funding on top of their current allocations, which will also be indexed," he said.
"This means no school will be worse off in real terms.
"We can't be any clearer than that."
Mr Garrett accused Mr Langbroek of scaremongering with a political purpose.
"He is pursuing this distraction because the Queensland government has failed to commit to investment in schools, and has no policy on how to meet the needs of Queensland students," Mr Garrett said.
Mr Langbroek denied Mr Garrett's claims that all states have details of funding for the Gonski plan.
"Mr Garrett is not telling the truth," he said.
Mr Langbroek said modelling details from Canberra all carry a disclaimer that the figures "do not represent a final position or offer from the commonwealth".
