Education
Ubobo State School is a government primary (Prep-6) school for boys and girls at Cedarvale Road (24°24′24″S 151°19′18″E / 24.4067°S 151.3217°E). In 2017, the school had an enrolment of 12 students with 3 teachers (2 full-time equivalent) and 4 non-teaching staff (2 full-time equivalent). Enrolments had been declining for several years, and at the start of 2019 the school had only 2 students. After both students left to attend other schools, the school was temporarily closed and remains so as of January 2022.
There are no secondary schools in the Boyne Valley. The nearest government secondary school is Calliope State High School in Calliope to the north, which offers secondary schooling to Year 10. For Years 11 and 12, the nearest government schools are Gladstone State High School in West Gladstone and Tannum Sands State High School in Tannum Sands, both to the north; however, the distances involved are sufficiently large that distance education and boarding school are other options.
