Dear Sir/Madam,

 

I refer to your email below.

 

I have been informed the information requested is not readily available as
the department’s finance systems is limited by the account structures
which does not separate accounts for hire of facilities, uniform sales or
textbook sales revenue.   However, financial information about individual
Queensland state schools is available through the MySchool website
([1]https://myschool.edu.au/). Revenue for items such as textbooks, hire
of facilities, extra-curricular activities (along with others) is included
across the Fees, Charges, and Parent Contributions and the Other Private
Sources Income Line items.

 

Kind regards

 

 

Fiona Headrick
