The Student Resource Scheme (SRS) is a user-charging scheme operated by schools to provide parents with a mechanism to access individual student resources that are not funded by the government. Schools develop the SRS based on resources needed by students and the programs offered at the school. The fees and inclusions are endorsed annually by the P&C and parents must be provided with annual information regarding the SRS fees and inclusions. Parental participation in the SRS is optional. When a parent chooses not to participate, the parent is responsible for providing the resources.
The SRS Participation Agreement Form (PAF) will need to be completed on enrolment and will remain continuous for the life of enrolment. A parent can choose to opt out of the scheme at any point but will need to complete the SRS form, selecting 'No' to participation.
There are three SRS programs run at Gooburrum State School:
