Read first: This edition does not state that “tuition fees” are less than they actually are.
Fixed fee for the year = public tuition for one child, grade of entry, plus levy/resource/device items listed as mandatory by the school; does not include items explicitly stated by the school as voluntary, optional, or unpriced. First-time non-refundable fees = application, acceptance, confirmation, membership and other items that are clearly non-refundable by the school. Deductible/refundable items are listed as cash and are never disguised as costs.
The scope of inclusion is based on the open school information of Queensland Non-State Schools Directory 2026-07-13: schools offering Prep–Year 6 or P–12 regular courses in the City of Gold Coast are included; not mixed with campuses outside the city limits such as Beenleigh, Yarrabilba, etc., and do not include secondary schools or special-assistance / alternative Year 4+ campuses.
Use these three tips first to avoid wrong comparisons
1. The same brands and different campuses will not be merged. King's Pimpama has different published fees than Reedy Creek; Silkwood's Mt Nathan / Robina two Gold Coast locations use the same fee schedule. 2. “Not listed in the reviewed source” does not mean free. It only means that the school’s current public page/PDF does not have this number that can be verified, and it still needs to be confirmed in writing when registering. 3. The first year is not just about tuition. First use the grade line below and add "non-refundable fee"; if there is a bond/deposit, set aside cash separately and do not count it as a permanent cost.

Version, Scope and Disclaimer
This edition reviews each of the 31 schools' own web pages or PDFs. 28 All 2026 numbers that can be read; the official 2026 entrances of Trinity Lutheran College and The Southport School cannot be read publicly this time. The official website of The Village School Gold Coast is still a 2025 table, so all three schools are listed but do not fill in the 2026 numbers. Fees, grade structure, payment discounts, levy, project coverage, school buses, uniforms, application windows and vacancies may all change; please reopen the official school link corresponding to the text before applying, paying or forwarding the old version.
This table is not a school ranking, price recommendation, educational evaluation, financial advice, admissions recommendation, or commitment of places/scholarships/admissions outcomes. For schools or projects that do not have public figures, they would rather write "undisclosed" and not use third-party comparison sites, old prices or estimates to complete the figures.
