Answer

I have interpreted this question to be for corporate overheads. I am advised that across the Ministry of Education overheads are allocated by: 1. headcount for Corporate, Digital and Property overheads, and 2. the Finance overhead is based on total spend (which includes compensation payments). In the 2024/25 financial year, this methodology resulted in total overheads of $1.087m.
