Changing Student Populations – Where will your students come from in the future?
The Association of Independent Schools of NSW Ltd hosted a Business and Operations Symposium from 20-21 October 2026 at the University of Technology Sydney Aerial Function Centre, Building 10, Level 7, 235 Jones Street, Ultimo NSW 2007.
Drawing on his latest white paper, ‘Future Student Population Trends‘, Peter Buckingham unpacked the critical demographic shifts shaping enrolments across Australia and more specifically, New South Wales.
It included insights on declining fertility rates, changing migration patterns, single and co-educational schooling options and evolving school preferences. It also challenged assumptions and provided a data-driven lens on what lies ahead.
The slides are available for anyone involved in enrolments, marketing, leadership, or strategic planning in an independent school in New South Wales.
What you’ll gain:
- Key insights into future student population trends
- A clearer understanding of where enrolments are heading
- Practical data to inform your school’s long-term strategy
