The Independent Schools Council of Australia (ISCA) has generated the following modelling to show the Independent sector as a percentage of their full SRS entitlement, if the same methodology was applied to the Independent sector as has been applied to Catholic and Government systems in recent analysis.
The figures show the funding status of the Independent school sector in each state if the sector was treated as a system for funding purposes.
Figures exclude a small proportion of Independent schools which are already part of a system.
* Due to special circumstances applying in the ACT, it is not possible to accurately represent ACT figures.
Despite recent media headlines that single out individual Independent schools, ISCA modelling shows that if treated consistently the Independent sector is in a similar position to the Catholic and/ or Government sectors.
