The Assocation of Independent Schools of the Northern Territory

The AISNT was formed in 1989 when Independent Schools in the Northern Territory saw it necessary for an association to act on their behalf. It is incorporated under the Associations Incorporation Act with twenty NT Independent Schools as its members.

The AISNT is not a system authority managing schools but an association of Independent Schools, which provides professional services to inform its members and raise quality standards.

The Association represents the schools to both levels of Government, Federal and Commonwealth and acts as a communication channel to the Schools as a group. The AISNT works to assist, represent and promote the interests of its member schools. It administers various Northern Territory and Commonwealth Government programs on behalf of its members ensuring transparent, equitable and efficient use of government funding.
