【盘点墨尔本最潜力的”校区房”】你有投资吗？
公学学区是根据学校周围的地理界线，以及学校可接纳学生人数所规划的区域限制。

这些区域要求学生的长期居住地址必须在特定的街区内，才有资格申请入学。

由于对墨尔本顶尖的公校(如Melbourne Girls College和Balwyn High)的需求量如此之高，大多数学校要求家长提供账单和租赁协议，作为他们在辖区内居住的证明，才允许他们的孩子注册入学。

一些学校甚至被传言雇佣私家侦探，因为绝望的家长们尝试在居住地址方面作弊。

由于这些高度受欢迎的学区住房紧缺，在墨尔本的顶级公校学区内的物业正总能获得较高溢价。

维多利亚房地产研究所(Real Estate Institute of Victoria, REIV)的研究显示，与邻近郊区的房价相比，位于“合适的”公立学校区域的房屋价值可以增加近$60万澳元。

资料来源:REIV 2016(* 2015年3月31日至2016年3月31日两间卧室以上的房屋中位价数据)。

REIV的首席执行官杰夫·怀特(Geoff White)说，高质量的设施和服务——尤其是学校和教育——是墨尔本房价上涨的主要驱动力之一。

怀特先生说：“越来越多地学龄儿童的家长不再愿意支付私校的学费，而是把这些钱投资在家庭住房上，尤其是投资于那些被划为最好的公立学校的校区内。

”
ASG(Supporting Children's Education)教育规划指数显示，2016年墨尔本私立学校的学费为小学平均每年$15280澳元，中学平均每年$26957澳元。

所以支付“学区溢价”似乎很有道理。

墨尔本的家长们明智地选择投资位于公立学校所学区在的房屋，而不是支付高昂的私立学校学费，一旦孩子们完成学业，他们就可以卖掉自己的房产同时还可以赚大钱。

这明显是双赢的局面。

你的孩子接受了最好的教育，而你的资产(家庭房产)在他们上学期间不断增值。

然而，你是否能买到最好的学区房，并与想要获得高质量教育的父母之间的激烈竞争就是另外一回事。

因此，父母有必要研究一下过去三年澳大利亚学校的VCE排名数据，从而推断出墨尔本排名前六的公立中学以及未来值得投资的地区。

The best Melbourne school zones to
buy into right now
Government school zones or catchment areas are a restriction placed
on the number of students a particular
school can take based on a geographical
boundary around the school. These zones
require that a student’s permanent
residential address be within a specific
neighbourhood to be eligible for a place. 此文章出于

Due to top Melbourne government schools (such as Melbourne Girls College
and Balwyn High) being in such high
demand, most schools require parents to
provide bills and lease agreements as
proof of their residency within the
catchment area to enrol their child. Some
schools have even been rumoured to hire
private investigators because of cases of
address fraud by desperate parents.
As a result of these highly sought after strict catchment areas, properties within
Melbourne’s top public school zones are
fetching premium prices in comparison to
real estate located just outside the zone.
Research by the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV) has revealed that homes
located in the ‘right’ public school zones can increase their value by almost $600k, when compared to prices in neighbouring suburbs.

Geoff White, REIV CEO, said access to high quality amenities and services- particularly schooling and education- is a key driver of price growth Melbourne wide.
‘Rather than paying private school fees, parents of school-aged children are increasingly investing that money in the family home and buying into areas zoned for top performing public schools’, Mr White said.
The ASG Planning for Education Index revealed the cost to send a child through private school in Melbourne in 2016 would be $15,280 a year for primary and $26,957 for the year at secondary level.
Paying a ‘school zone premium’ seems to make a lot of sense. Melbourne parents are smartly opting to invest in public school-zoned houses rather than
paying exorbitant private school fees, where once the kids finish their schooling they can sell up their asset for big money.
It’s seemingly a win-win. Your child receives some of the best education in the state while your asset (the family home) appreciates in value over the duration of their schooling.
However, whether you can buy into one of the top school catchment zones is another matter, with strong competition from fellow parents wanting access to high quality education.
So we thought it’d be worthwhile to take a look at Australian School Ranki ngs’ data from the past three years of VCE Rankings to deduce Melbourne’s top six up and coming government secondary school catchment areas worth investing in now.
1. Northcote High School
Northcote High has seen steadily impressive VCE results over the past three years. Starting with a ranking of 34th best government school in 2013, moving up to 26th in 2014 and rising to 17th spot in 2015.
