Government Boosts International Education with New School Support Funding

The Government is providing new funding for a specialist support function to help schools attract and manage international students, aiming to double the international education sector’s value to $7.2 billion by 2034. This support will assist schools with marketing, resourcing, finding homestays, and ensuring student wellbeing and safety, benefiting both current and prospective participants. The initiative seeks to sustain economic growth from international education by helping schools confidently expand their programs, with the tender available on the Government Electronic Tender Service by June 2026.
