The online estimator has been updated to include:

• final 2025 indexation based on the final 2025 indexation update, and
• published 2025 Capacity to Contribute (CTC) scores as at 12 August 2025.

For further information on indexation rates, download the Department of Education factsheet How is school funding indexed?

The Australian Government has committed to a temporary 12-month rollover of 2025 CTC scores for 2026. The rollover will be incorporated into the online estimator tool once the Australian Education Regulations 2023 have been amended.

We will notify you via a SchoolsHUB news item when the CTC rollover has been added to the online estimator.

If you have any enquiries, please contact recurrentfundingestimates@education.gov.au.

Due to an update, the SchoolsHUB online estimator will be unavailable on Wednesday 27 August after 2 pm (AEST).

You can resume using online estimator at 9 am (AEST) Thursday 28 August 2025.
