Non-government schools in Victoria, earning over $15,000 per student annually, will face payroll tax starting July 1, previously exempted, affecting elite schools like Haileybury, which may pay more tax than state funding received.
Despite some private schools being overfunded against the Schooling Resource Standard, new tax measures will impact prestigious institutions like Methodist Ladies College, Carey Grammar, Scotch College, and Xavier, with schools already increasing fees to counter the tax burden.
Xavier College has introduced a payroll tax levy of $885 per student annually, following the new tax regulations, prompting Opposition arguments for exemption for all schools, emphasizing private schools' importance in easing the pressure on the government education system.
