CSA was formed to be a strong national voice for the Christian school voice. Today it is Australia’s largest association of independent (non-systemic) Christian schools, and has an important role in advocating for their needs as a recognised national stakeholder group.

CSA commenced operations in 2002, an amalgamation of two former associations, Christian Community Schools and the Christian Schools Association of Queensland, with a number of schools not previously in association membership.

CSA's organisational structure includes executive officers throughout Australia. This enables us to support and represent schools with national and state requirements.

Our state councils provide for close networking at a local level, while the national council ensures that the vision for a national voice is realised.
