The National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA) has released the review undertaken into the investment in support for Indigenous secondary boarding by Grant Thornton Australia.

Following the Study Away Review the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet requested an independent analysis of the existing investment in support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander secondary students attending boarding.

Twenty‑seven Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander boarding providers, providing boarding for approximately 1,900 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander secondary students, were analysed for this report. The findings were compared against 23 mainstream boarding providers.

The report is available for download from the NIAA website.
