Catholic schools form the second largest
sector after government schools, with around 21% of secondary
enrolments. Most Australian catholic schools belong to a system like
government schools, are typically co-educational, and attempt to provide
Catholic education evenly across the states. These schools are also known
as 'systemic'. Systemic Catholic schools are funded mainly by state and
federal government and have low fees.
There are also a substantial number of independent Catholic schools, often
single-sex, usually run by established religious orders, such as the
Sisters of Mercy or the Christian Brothers. Independent Catholic school
fees vary, ranging from low to high. However, fee's are typically lower
than that of Independent schools, and fee concessions for Catholic
families facing financial difficulty are quite common.
Catholic schools, both systemic and independent, proclaim strong religious
motivations and most often the majority of their staff and students will
be Catholics.
Independent Schools
Independent schools make up the last sector and are the most popular form
of schooling for boarding students. Independent schools are non-government
institutions that are generally not part of a system.
Although most are non-aligned, some of the best known independent schools
also belong to the large, long-established religious foundations (Anglican,
Uniting Church, Presbyterian) but in most cases they do not insist on
their students’ religious allegiance. These schools are typically viewed
as 'elite schools'. Many of the ‘grammar schools’ also fall in this
category. They are usually expensive schools that tend to be up-market and
traditional in style.
On the other hand, many independent schools are quite new, often small,
and not necessarily traditional at all
