The exclusive schools high-earning parents are sending their children to
But some smaller schools also made the list.
Families with a median income of $344,000 are sending their children to Mount Scopus Memorial College in Burwood, figures from the Department of Education show.
The family income is the income of both parents, rather than just individual income.
The leading Jewish school is among those with one of the highest fees – $43,130 for year 12 – plus yearly compulsory levies including $1550 to cover payroll tax.
Christ Church Grammar School in South Yarra, operating from prep to year 6, and Melbourne Grammar School parents were both earning $336,000 on average.
Others with parents in the top-earning bracket included Catholic school Loreto, Mandeville Hall in Toorak, Scotch College in Hawthorn, and Anglican school Melbourne Girls' Grammar in South Yarra.
Smaller schools including St Michael's Grammar in St Kilda were also among the list. The independent school's fees come to nearly $41,000 for year 12.
Principal at St Michael's, Gerard Houlihan, said parents at the school reflect Melbourne's evolving professional and cultural life.
