Brisbane grammar fees are $18,270.00. it is wrong on your website
All the above school fees were as at 2009, an example of current 2011 fees are:
Brisbane Grammar Annual Tuition Fees for 2011 are:
$15,195 Years 6 and 7
$18,270 Years 8 to 12
Brisbane Girls Grammar for 2011
$17,480 Years 8 to 12
Both of these show an increase of about 17% over the 2 years 2009 to 2011.
Anglican church grammar school?
Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie) is one of many QLD schools that achieved at least 95% of students at or above the National Minimum Standard benchmark, in EVERY subject and in EVERY year tested, in the Naplan 2009 results.
They are therefore classed as being in the “High Levels of Performance” class of the NAPLAN 2009 tests.

They also made it to position 5 in the primary results for 2010

Can any one suggest which are the best primary schools in the Gold Coast?
I have no direct knowledge of schools on the Gold coast, but I have been reading up on this, and found a school worth looking at, if Private is in your choices, the Queensland Independent College. The 2011 school fees were $3,000 for the year, and had 49 students with 5 teachers, in 2010.
My rankings by different methods, showing the top 5 are:
By 2010 Student to Teacher ratio:
10.9 Queensland Independent College, Merrimac Private
13.2 Somerset College, Mudgeeraba Private
13.7 All Saints Anglican School, Merrimac Private
15.3 Burleigh Heads State School, Burleigh Heads State
15.4 King’s Christian College, Reedy Creek Private
My ranking on Naplan results:
117.6% Somerset College, Mudgeeraba Private
110.1% Hillcrest Christian College, Reedy Creek Private
108.8% All Saints Anglican School, Merrimac Private
104.9% King’s Christian College, Reedy Creek Private
102.1% Varsity College, Varsity Lakes State
Note that this is just my opinion, based purely on my interpretation of the NAPLAN 2010 results.
Queensland Academy for Science Mathematics and Technology achieved 46.5% OP1 equivalents last year. I believe you should give our school a little credit for being one of the best schools in Queensland. We achieved a higher rank than B.B.C. (our neighbouring school)and many other fine schools. Just because we run the IB curriculum doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be ranked. I’m sure my school should be one of the top three if not the number one on the list. If you didn’t know, we still take the Queensland testings and get more OP1′s than many schools in the state!
I think that this academy may not be included in normal rankings due to the following:
It would therefore appear that the students at this QASMT must already be above average, from prior schooling, to be allowed entry to the academy.
The schools listed on the above post are either Primary Schools (Prep to Year 6 or 7) or Senior Schools (Year 7 or 8 to Year 12), and have results from the NAPLAN testing available.
The QASMT appears to be in none of those options, and would need to be listed in a third category of selective schools for years 10 to 12 only.
If I can locate similar schools I will try to compare QASMT with them.

Hello, I have recently moved to brisbane (redlands) Birkdale QLD 4159. I have a young girl who I am wanting to put into early learning. any suggestions where I am in the catchment area, also primary and high school (planning the future) thank you kindly.
Birkdale is a nice area, right next to Wellington Point, and therefore convenient for either.

No personal experience of these though. My own child is in High school now, but has friends in Birkdale in area.
Hi,I am a former student and am just wondering why Varsity College is not on there? It was elected by the QLD Government for the 5 years of 2009-2013 as the best school in QLD?
I distinctly remember hearing this from our principle and a representative (and such things as if any parents enquire about the best school in QLD, they are automatically referred to VC), so why is there no mention of this? for either Primary or Senior? we may not have had the best NAPLAN or OP scores, but there is a reason this school was chosen. It was far superior to other Gold Coast school.
Another note, this is a PUBLIC school but the fees for senior school were $450ish in 2012 for the senior school, plus other fees such as specialty excursions and the 1-to-1 laptop program.
Any parents looking at schools, i attended for 9 years (4 through 12) and is a great school, for more reason then their academics. There in no tolerance for bullying or cheating, and are so helpful if you attend TAFE during your years or have any personal trouble or other commitments (i.e. training competitively for sports. My friend was allowed 2 years to complete yr12 due to this)
