This is just federal spending. Most educational spending is at the state level.

I don’t know much but I don’t think Australia works that way? Do they have “states” or some equivalent? Curiously asking.

Yeah we have 6 states. Australia is a federation like the US. There's no equivalent to this form because we don't have any state income taxes.
