Student Resource Scheme
This information will assist you in making a decision as to whether you wish to participate in the Student Resource Scheme (SRS).
What does the Queensland Government provide?
The Queensland Government supports children's education by providing funding for:
- Instruction (teachers),
- Facilities (buildings, amenities, furniture), and
- Administration (staff and resources to administer the operations of the school).
Funding for schools does not extend to individual student resources such as textbooks, equipment for personal use, and many items used/consumed by the student in the classroom.
The SRS also offers a convenient and cost-effective way for parents to source the items that their child needs for school.
The SRS participation fee
This amount is a flat rate for all students in the school. The cost of the SRS for 2024 is $165.
If you are not satisfied that the SRS fee represents good value for money based on the inclusions, you may choose not to participate in the SRS. If that is the case, please complete a new Participation Agreement Form, indicating that you no longer wish to participate. If you choose not to participate, you will be provided with a detailed list of resources that you will need to provide for the student.
Invoicing and payment methods
Invoices are emailed at the commencement of each school year. The invoice will note the due date(s) for payment.
Payment can be made via:
- QParent
- BPoint
- EFTPOS
- Payment plans are available from the office
Any unpaid invoices will be managed according to the department's Debt Management Procedure and may result in the student being excluded from the scheme and/or from participating in extra-curricular activities until payments are made.
Financial hardship
If you would like to participate but are experiencing financial difficulties, please contact the school to arrange an appointment to discuss options in confidence
Return of hired resources
A repair or replacement cost will be charged to the parent for any items that are damaged or not returned.
