Compulsory Curriculum and Technology Levy (CTL)
This incorporates a Technology component of $800 for costs associated with the provision of electronic devices and education programs/software.

From 2023, the CTL will cover the provision of many more curriculum-related materials, incursions, minor excursions, and activities which were previously charged separately to parents. This will provide more certainty to parents and reduce the need to make extra payments. The CTL excludes camps (eg; year camps) and major excursions and some elective/music fees.
