Federal Election
Catholic Education will keep you informed about the policies that affect our 765,000 students and their families. We will let you know about our campaign to highlight the needs of Catholic schools and how the parties respond with their election promises.
Catholic schools are a vital part of Australia’s education landscape; from humble beginnings almost 200 years ago, Catholic schools have grown to become the nation’s largest provider of education outside government.
Today, Australia’s 1750 Catholic schools educate one in five students and employ more than 96,000 people, making Catholic education a key partner in the delivery of quality schooling with the government and independent sectors.
