Education Overview for the Northern Beaches

Arriving in a new city is challenging enough, but having children in tow adds to this challenge - what's the education system like, which schools are right for our children, how much will we have to pay?

A quick browse on the Internet can often be confusing. Government-run sites with pages and pages of information appear next to sites promoting exclusive private schools, with very little in-between. Finding the relevant facts without spending hours looking for them is nigh on impossible.

This is where Sydney Settlers can help. We have scoured the available information, both online and from written material, and condensed it all into a report which is easy-to-read and understand.

Our Education Overview consists of 23 pages and includes:

  • an introduction to the education system in Australia and a full explanation of the terms used
  • an overview of the primary and secondary curriculums
  • options for further education, information about catchment areas, school fees and term dates
  • a list of all schools on the Northern Beaches, both public (the equivalent of state schools in the UK) and private.

Each school listed in the report comes with the information parents need to know - such as the number of pupils on the roll, contact details for the school (including web addresses), whether schools are single-sex or co-educational, approximate annual fees and numbers of students achieving HSC awards last year. Trying to access information on all the schools in the area can take hours of research, checking Internet reports, government information, private school listings etc, many of which will give biased opinions. Our totally independent Education Overview contains all the information you need in one report.

The Education Overview costs just £25 and is emailed to you direct*, ready to be printed off and kept as a convenient reference manual. For those of you planning to move to the Northern Beaches with school-age children, this is the only source information about education you'll need.

To order your copy, simply send your order to us and your report will be with you in a few days.
