Non-government schools − which teach 36 per cent of Victorian students − are privately reporting they have been inundated with families requesting school fee reductions or waivers.
"We have no choice but to issue an invoice, alas. We need the fees in order to maintain our obligations, the most significant of which is to our staff," principal Nick Evans said. "We ask those of you who can, to pay their fees as invoiced."Paul Jeffers Other high-fee schools that have urged families with fee troubles to approach them include boys' school St Kevin's College, Brighton Grammar, Mount Scopus Memorial College in Burwood, and girls' schools St Catherine's and Lauriston.
If you pay $25k/year per kid in tuition, you don't get to credibly claim hardship. Sell some shares. Take advantage of a loan the bank will gladly throw at you. Sell one of your several cars. Access your super like you've been telling all the plebs to do. How great are Jobs?
Let them fail. They are a private business after all. Good riddance
I’m pretty sure that the private schools can afford to lower their fees or even out a hold on fee paying for a while
A pox on Wesley.
If you had the money to send a kid to private school, why the hell would you pick Wesley?
Why shouldn't they offer to help? They're subsidised by the taxpayer. They can afford to help.
They should speak to Geelong College about their experience following the Pyramid Building Society collapse in G-town.
What abt the billions in public revenue hmm?
