Purpose
Overview
Applications for the Islamic stream of the fund are open until the $30 million allocation is exhausted.
Non-government schools are an important part of Victoria's education system, with over one-third of Victorian students studying at Catholic or independent schools.
The Government has committed $450 million to help build and upgrade low-fee catholic and independent schools across the state. This funding will be allocated over 4 grant rounds and the Islamic stream, across four years (2023-24 to 2026-27) for independent schools.
Schools are not required to match the government's contribution dollar-for-dollar. However, the sector is to ensure a collective co-contribution of at least 20 per cent of the overall fund value, over the life of the Program.
