John Somerset Thesis (PDF 1MB) |
Description
Independent schools in Australia have $10 billion in annual turnover, educate 594,000 students, employ 53,000 teachers plus other staff, invest billions of dollars into infrastructure and service debt of approximately $3 billion. Financial stakeholders have little empirical evidence on the attributes of a financially sustainable independent school from which to make an informed decision on financial risk. This innovative qualitative study uncovered thick, rich descriptions from a broad range of expert stakeholders to define a financially sustainable independent school and document a comprehensive list of attributes.
