St Francis Xavier School is a Brisbane Catholic Education (BCE) school. BCE financially supports each school of the Archdiocese in a variety of ways. One of the most significant supports concerns staffing. BCE teaching and support staff are located within our schools and at our Catholic Education Centre. Government grants subsidise staffing costs in part and the balance comes from school fees, school levies and school fundraising.
