The major administrative distinction between schools in Australia is not *just* whether they are government funded or private, but also whether they belong to a system or not—whether they are “systemic” or not. Schools belonging to a system share the same administration, the same curriculum, the same governance.
Actual independent schools, on the other hand, are each of them a law unto themselves. The Association of Independent Schools in each state is a peak body, but it has little decision-making power.
If you need to talk to the schools in your state about a policy matter (as my employer routinely does),
There is one authority for all government schools to talk to: the State Department of Education. Whatever they decide will happen in all the government schools.
Each independent school, on the other hand, really is independent. You can talk to the Association, but the Association is going to be very reluctant to commit to anything, because it simply can’t.
There are anything from one to a dozen authorities to talk to for Catholic schools: the dioceses in the state. The dioceses do however coordinate efforts around education, and increasingly have centralised.
So independents are truly independent when it comes to governance; Catholic schools are systemic—that is, they are centralised, though at the level of the local bishop rather than the state.
There are other school systems according to denomination in Australia: Lutherans, Anglicans, Seventh Day Adventists. For a school to belong to that system means not only that it falls under that denomination, but also that it shares governance with other schools, that some policy for them is set by a body above them all (and affiliated with the denominational hierarchy). But the other school systems are tiny. Most Anglican and Lutheran etc schools don’t belong to a system, and are truly independent. (As far as I know, that also applies to non-Protestant religious schools, including Greek Orthodox, Jewish, and Islamic.)
Quora上看到的一个解释。
简单的说，Anglican is truly independent 不属于一个统一的系统，自管自，所以各收个的钱，价格programme都可以不同。
Catholic 由Catholic diocese 管，有统一的系统，有统一的funding，所以学费也便宜。
Public schools 都归政府education department 管，政策都一样，funding也都统一apply。
