Independent Schools Australia

The three main types of schooling in Australia consist of Public or Government Schooling, Private Schooling and then Independent Schools. Independent Schools are not Australian Government Funded meaning higher school fees and smaller class sizes which is a plus.

Every parent wants their child to get all the attention they require whilst completing school. Smaller class sizes will always help with this. Independent Schools will usually require you to purchase more elaborate School uniforms. There will be more excursions, more extra - curricular activities and sporting events, and more focus on each student as an individual.

Independent Schools will usually have bigger campus's, offering classes for children from Kindergarten to Year 12. These campus's will have more facilities with more specialist teachers including special music and art areas, bigger Gymnasiums, swimming pools and tennis courts many of the Independent Schools will even have their own Rowing Clubs and school Horse Riding teams.

A more exclusive option you will find these schools in all capital cities and are well worth the extra.
