Kew schools by ICSEA
ICSEA describes the socio-educational background of a school’s students (the national average is 1000). It is not a measure of teaching quality, so visit, and read each school’s results on My School.

School zones go by address, not suburb
A government school's catchment can split a suburb, so two streets in Kew can belong to different schools. Check the exact address with the VIC education department's school finder before you make an offer, and ask the agent for it in writing.
