Independent schools

Running an independent school brings some unique challenges. You may have the same operating revenue as a small listed company, but highly uneven cash flow.

You have investments to manage and a valuable portfolio of assets to maintain. And you’re responsible, not just for the bottom line, but for the wellbeing of students and their families, now and in the future.

To succeed, you need a banking partner who understands the special demands of the education sector.

Helping your school achieve its potential

When you choose the Commonwealth Bank as your banking partner, you’re supported by a dedicated Relationship Executive who specialises in independent schools.

Our Relationship Executives talk to Bursars, Business Managers and Principals every day, so they understand the special demands you face.
