Sydney, Austrailia - The Exclusive Brethren is poised to receive more than $10 million in Federal Government funds this year.
The secret religious sect will obtain the funds for five schools around Australia which are being run by the Brethren.
It comes several months after Prime Minister Kevin Rudd described the sect as an extremist cult that breaks up families.
The largest Brethren school at Meadowbank in Sydney's north will receive $4.3 million this year, Fairfax reports.
The schools, which operate over many campuses, will collect almost $50 million in taxpayer subsidies over the next four years.
An additional $502,000 was secured by the Bretheren under the federal Investing in our Schools program.
Mr Rudd and Education Minister Julia Gillard have said Labor will retain the Howard Government's controversial private school funding scheme for at least the next four years.
