School Support Services are centrally funded costs of operating and maintaining school facilities. Components include insurance, maintenance and minor works, and contracts for cleaning, gardening, lawn mowing and rubbish removal.
The reduction of $96.1 million from 2009-2010 to 2010-2011 mainly reflects once-off expenditure in 2009-2010 relating to the Commonwealth funded Building the Education Revolution of $96.9 million. This also explains why the 2009-2010 budget is significantly higher than the 2008-2009 estimated actual for School Support Services.
