3717 - STUDENT FUNDING FOR SCHOOLS IN THE WALLSEND ELECTORATE

Hornery, Sonia to the Minister for Skills and Tertiary Education representing the Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning

What was the per student funding for each public school, catholic school, and independent school in the Wallsend electorate in the 2018-19 and 2019-20 financial years?

 

Answer -

The NSW Department of Education does not hold all the data required to provide per student funding allocations that are comparable across government and non-government (i.e. Catholic and independent) schools for the period requested.

Financial information in relation to public, catholic and independent schools is publicly available via the MySchool website. This includes Commonwealth Government and Government recurrent funding per student for all schools. This information is released in due course by the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) following an annual data collection, review and quality assurance data validation of school financial data. The most recently available data is for the 2018 school year and can be accessed via the MySchool website at https://www.myschool.edu.au.
