Dear Parents, Guardians, and School Community,
At Clearview Christian College, we are committed to providing an excellent education that supports the values and aspirations of our families. As we approach the upcoming federal election, we want to share some important information about the role of Independent schools and how we can work together to ensure their continued strength and accessibility.
Independent schools like ours contribute to the diversity of education in Australia, offering families the ability to choose a learning environment that best suits their children. This is made possible through a combination of family contributions and government funding, which helps ensure schools remain accessible and continue to provide high-quality education.
However, proposed funding cuts could have significant consequences, including:
Higher fees, making it harder for families to afford their preferred education.
Reduced resources, impacting the quality of programs and support available to students.
Fewer opportunities, particularly for vulnerable students, including those with disabilities and from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Loss of choice, undermining the diversity and inclusivity that make our education system strong.
To help raise awareness about the importance of school choice and fair funding, we are participating in the School Choice Counts campaign. This initiative highlights the value of Independent schools and how families can stay informed about policies that impact education.
We are encouraging all Clearview families to check out the resources below for more details on the campaign, how to engage with decision-makers, and ways to support Independent education. Your involvement—whether through staying informed, sharing information, or engaging with the wider community—can make a difference.

We deeply appreciate your ongoing support and partnership in shaping a positive future for our students.
Kind regards,
Melanie Loosmore
