PK Croft promoted to Parliamentary Secretary for Education

Member for Broadwater Peta-Kaye Croft is to become the Parliamentary Secretary for the important portfolio of Education.

Premier Anna Bligh announced the move today following the resignation of Carolyn Male as the Parliamentary Secretary for Education due to health reasons.

"The loss of Carolyn as Parliamentary Secretary is obviously regrettable. I thank her for her hard work in this role and wish her the best for her recovery.

"There is no portfolio more important than Education and I know that Peta-Kaye will relish this challenge.

"PK has done a great job as Parliamentary Secretary for Emergency Services.

"Promoting PK to the Education portfolio is a vote of confidence in her performance," Ms Bligh said.

Ms Croft said she was excited about this new opportunity.

"I've always been passionate about education but now as the mother of a toddler my interest in education is even more focused.

"This will be a chance to be more closely involved in the Education reforms and to help see them through.

"My young son Brock will benefit from these reforms as will thousands of other children.

"I will be working hard to make sure that our kids get the best chance in life through an improved education system," Ms Croft said
