We can implement programs that wouldn't be possible under other  kinds of schooling systems. It means we can forge our own directions in what we see as valuable.

The value of the independent sector – to schooling, families, the community, society, the economy and the future – is considerable and worthy of its own story.

Independent schools are unique and prized autonomy allows them to be highly attuned and responsive to any changes in their local communities, and to pivot quickly and galvanise support in times of crisis and to harness new opportunities in times of prosperity. Innovation is part of the independent schooling sector’s DNA – a characteristic that will ensure its longevity and ongoing role in shaping the educational futures of Queensland children.
