Re: Schooling
Bridging visas carry the same conditions as the original visa so if he entered Australia on a visa which charged him for schooling then that will continue.

Well I still don’t know if they will charge him or not because he can be legally be employed but not be able to study like other residents?

Re: Schooling
Ah OK thanks - I've learned something, the fees are paid centrally, rather than to individual schools.
