LoopyLauren Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hi, Looking for rentals and obviously difficult to pick and need to factor in schools etc. Is there a government website or rating system like the one in the UK that I can look at, or any other local websites that offer advice. You forget how much you rely on local knowledge or reports from friends when deciding big stuff like schools! Still spending our days driving about both north and south, looking like weirdos stalking out properties to burgle! But running out of time, got two weeks left in my rental! I quite like Port kennedy or warnbro, secret harbour so far in the south( i know secret harbour schools are well thought of generally), in the north i like Quinn rocks, ( reminds me of the area in the film "The Goonies!" I know there are not so great areas in all areas, but what about schools, How can i check? Any tips? Lauren:arghh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo36 Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Silly question do we have to pay for our children's education when / if we move to Perth ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benj1980 Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Private yes although this tends to be cheaper than in the UK. Public no, well not really. You pay towards books, maintenance of the school (I think) and a few other bits and bobs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benj1980 Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Depends which visa you are on. Good point! I was thinking PR Visa only! If it's a temporary visa yes you do pay fees I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
