All Saints' College

The cost of year 12 tuition at private schools in Western Australia rose by an average of 1.6 per cent for 2019, the lowest hike in fees among any state in Australia.

As students transition to remote learning ahead of a new school term, private schools are grappling with whether to adjust tuition fees.

Some of Western Australia’s most prominent private and independent schools have amassed financial reserves worth tens of millions of dollars in recent decades, with endowment fees supporting the ongoing investments of their associated foundations.

Giving students the opportunity to use their problem-solving skills in real world settings has been the foundation of All Saints’ College’s initiative ‘The Agency’, which allows students to undertake work opportunities within the school.

The rapid growth in private school fees has slowed in 2021, but socio- economic status remains a big factor in educational outcomes.

Industry partnerships and a unique take on project-based learning underpin All Saints’ College’s forthcoming alternative school.

Corporate governance skills and knowledge are playing a role in school leaders’ future leadership training.
