Abstract
The SES score used by the Commonwealth Government in the calculation of funding for non-Government schools uses the calculated SES of the areas in which a student lives. SES scores are calculated at the SA1 level based on measures of family and household income, education and occupation. The values for each component are combined using a 1/3 weight for education; a 1/3 weight for occupation; and a 1/6 weight for household income and a 1/6 weight for family income. The values for each student are then used to calculate an average for the school.
