Build a budget beyond the tuition fee

Annual tuition

Compare the same schedule year and year level. Keep Catholic and independent school samples separate.

Costs beyond tuition

Check levies, uniforms, devices, camps and transport with each school. What is included varies by school.

Plan for the years ahead

Request the schedule for your child’s entry year, and ask about sibling discounts and payment options.

Frequently asked questions

Which year do these school fees apply to?

Each school’s schedule year is shown separately. Undated fees are excluded from comparisons. The date this page was rebuilt does not establish which year a fee applies to.

About these comparisons

Comparisons use the same published schedule year, year level and school sector, for local day students. Medians and quartiles require at least five schools in that group. Undated fees are excluded. We do not rank schools by their highest fee across different year levels.

The figures cover listed Catholic and independent schools, not every school. Fees do not measure school quality. Confirm boarding, enrolment, uniforms, devices and other charges with the school; the existing records do not consistently itemise all compulsory levies.

Comparison data rebuilt 25 Oct 2026. This is not the schedule year or a new verification of every fee.
