When the time comes to choose the right school for your child, parents are often faced with a choice: should their child go to a private school or public school? While there are many fine private institutions in Australia, it is important for parents to know how to identify a truly exceptional private school. With so many choices available, however, how can a parent be sure they are getting the most from private school fees? At West Moreton Anglican College, we believe that looking for specific signs and asking the right questions can help a parent identify if they are making the right choice.

Classroom Size

Private school tours are the best way to gain firsthand knowledge about how a school operates. Private school fees are often higher than other schools, so parents have a right to demand the very best. Private schools’ enrolments are focused around keeping classroom sizes small. This allows teachers to engage with every student meaningfully and give them the attention they need to develop in their studies. Private school tours provide parents and prospective students the opportunity to see how teachers and students interact in real time.

Academic Freedom

Top private schools are given the freedom to shape their own academic philosophy and learning techniques. When choosing a private school for your child, be sure to ask lots of questions about the school’s philosophy, how they execute their vision, and how they ensure that every child benefits from the school’s unique approach to child development.

Amenities and Facilities

Top private schools in Australia have one thing in common: they accept no compromise when it comes to providing their students with cutting-edge facilities and amenities. From the latest classroom technologies for learning to pristine sports facilities where athletic excellence is fostered, an excellent private school invests in every aspect of a child’s development.

Relationship with Parents

A child’s development is a dynamic process that requires a strong bond between parents and teachers. Quality private schools are known for maintaining open lines of communication with parents to keep them abreast of their child’s development and the school’s evolving mission.
