The 2011 review of funding for schooling, the Gonski review, sets out that the SRS should include the full cost of delivering schooling services, regardless of whether these are delivered in an independent school or in a systemic school. A provision for general maintenance and minor acquisitions below an established capitalisation threshold has recommended excluding sector costs, such as regulation of schools, certifications of teachers, national school testing and development of curriculum.
