WEBINAR | A Changing Demographic Landscape: Planning for Tomorrow’s Students Today
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the winds have blown strongly in favour of Independent and Catholic schools. Nationally, Independent school enrolments have risen by 15.1% from 2020 to 2024 — but will this growth continue, or are changes on the horizon?
With Australia’s fertility rate in decline—particularly in medium to high socio-economic areas—future enrolment from these demographics is expected to soften.
In this Webinar, participants will explore the future landscape of education, unpacking the latest data and trends. You’ll gain insights into the statistical outlook for schools and learn how to leverage available data to inform strategic business decisions. Presenter Peter Buckingham will also demonstrate how online mapping tools can support schools in accessing and interpreting demographic data to better plan for the future.
