Inner-city Brisbane schools are reported to be experiencing major overcrowding issues, with new schools being called to be built by the State Government to reduce this issue.

Michael Berkman, Greens MP has suggested that a new school be built in the electorate of Maiwar, to release the pressure of this growth.

This is seen in Ironside State School in St Lucia, with over 1100 students creating major hikes in enrolments in schools nearby in this area. 

Education Minister Grace Grace suggests that her department monitors these trends, and accouns for areas which requires high growth.
