Content: Government schools (public)
These schools are under the authority of the State Department of Education and are regulated by a centralised Government body. Governments offer a strong platform of education without a religious denomination behind it, but will include a similar curriculum as an independent school. Most Government schools are co-educational (both boys and girls). Only a few schools are single sex (only boys or only girls). Independent schools (private)
An independent school operates separately from Government administration – while in accordance with Government standards and regulations – as their curriculum is often supported by a religious denomination. Funding comes primarily from the schools administration, and the school is controlled by a school board. Independent schools may also offer the International Baccalaureate (IB) along with the Senior Secondary Certificate of Education. Independent schools may be co-educational (boys and girls) or single sex (only boys or only girls). Accommodation options
International students at Government schools are likely to live in homestay arrangements. Homestay means staying with a local Australian family for a fee.
