SOUTHERN Metropolitan Region MLA Andrea Coote MLC has called for an investigation into rising school enrolments in Port Melbourne.
The parliamentary secretary for families and community services said schools such as Port Melbourne Primary had experienced substantial growth over the past decade and needed additional investment to cope with an expected population boost from housing redevelopment at Fishermans Bend.
"More households mean more families, so it is essential that adequate infrastructure, including schools, be invested during the development," she said.
