Greater Melbourne Private Secondary School Fees and Upfront Enrolment Costs79 schools with published 2026 fees

Look at the coverage first, then the price

The Greater Melbourne Government Directory Baseline has a total of 188 secondary, preparatory to secondary open entities in the Catholic or independent school system. After this school-by-school inspection, 79 schools have disclosed the 2026 local students' grades 7-12 fees that can be reviewed; another 2 schools need to check through the fee calculator or restricted entrance, 5 schools still have public information from the old year, and 102 schools have not disclosed the complete 2026 local students' 7-12 grades prices. In the following, only the aforementioned 79 institutions will be compared, without filling in the blanks with old prices or wrong candidates.

Amounts are in Australian dollars (AUD) and verified on 24 July 2026 (AEST). The table is based on the annual fixed expenses for the first child or a standard family, and tries to incorporate fixed items such as tuition fees, resource fees, technology fees, and mandatory camp activity fees clearly listed by the school. The per-family surcharge will not be implicitly applied to individual children, but will be stated separately in the "Cost Range Tips".

This form is suitable for filtering budget ranges, not for school quotations. The school may charge different amounts for different campuses, VHSC General Pathways, Vocational Major Pathways, International Baccalaureate Pathways, elective courses or equipment arrangements; please still ask the school to give written confirmation based on your child's actual entry grade and course path before payment.
