2024 School Fees

Following the 27th October meeting of the Armidale Catholic Schools Board (the Board), you are advised that the Board resolved for the 2024 school year that all schools will increase their school fees by 4%. The 4% increase translates to an average increase of $1.30 per school week for primary schools and $3.00 per school week for secondary schools.

In making this decision, the Board Directors were cognisant that

• there are persistent and potentially growing cost-of-living pressures on families
• most schools have not increased their fees for a number of years
• schools also have cost-of-living pressures and must also maintain quality learning resources and environments
• the recommended 4% increase is below the current CPI of 5.4% as at the September Quarter release.
