This affects families on 457 visas whose children attend public schools.
If you are a 457 visa holder, have school-going children and reside in South Australia, this news is for you.
South Australia state government has proposed public education contribution fee for 457 visa holders.
From January 2017, newly arriving 457 visa holders will be required to contribute to the cost of educating their children in government schools. This requirement will then extend to all 457 visa holders from 1 January 2018.
These proposed changes are aimed at bringing South Australia in line with some other Australian states and territories and how they manage contributions towards public education.
