Please reinstate Mr Ernie Fleming as Principal of Bendigo South East College (BSE).

Mr Ernie Fleming is a valued member of the community in Bendigo. I am astonished that such a leader and innovator is quote on 'extended leave' from the Department of Education.  

All parents are able to CHOOSE where their child attends school, it is departmental policy. We have chosen BSE for its innovative programs and exceptional delivery of education. Technology and Sport are vital to our children's development. Especially my daughters. I know many parents personally that would drive for miles to have the privilege of their child attending this school with Ernie Fleming leading this charge.

 Mr Ernie Fleming must be reinstated.  He is a true innovator of education.

The Department of Education need to engage and celebrate this man's achievements. I am horrified at the way he has been treated.  

It is time for our community to stand together and help this man return to his role as Principal of BSE. Please help me effect this change.

Yours Sincerely Debra Slender Mother of Child who currently attends BSE.
