SCHOOL FEE CONCESSIONS

St Michael’s endeavours to make Catholic education affordable for all in our local community. If you become eligible for a means tested Centrelink payment please apply for CSEF and a Category 1 fee concession as soon as possible.

The school has an application process for any enrolled family to seek a fee concession based on financial hardship. There are two categories under which an application for a concession can be made:

Category 1 – Eligible means tested Health Care Card (HCC) and Pensioner Concession Card (PCC) holders

Any family in which the fee payer holds an eligible, means tested CCC are automatically eligible for a school fee concession. There is a simple application form and streamlined approval process. The Diocese of Sale Catholic Education Limited recommended concessional fee for 2020 is $520 per family.

Category 2 – Special Consideration

For other families experiencing financial hardship, the application process requires more detail to be provided to enable a fair and equitable assessment of eligibility for, and level of, fee concession. Please contact the office on office@stmtraralgon.catholic.edu.au for further details.
