Enrolment Information
Our enrolment process complies with the requirements of our Integration Agreement and the Education and Training Act 2020.
Preference and Non-Preference Enrolment
- Preference enrolment: The Education and Training Act 2020 (section 26) states that “the children of parents who have a particular or general philosophical or religious connection with a State integrated school must be preferred to other children for enrolment at the school.” Parents may apply for preference enrolment and the decision is made using criteria stated in the integration agreement.
- Non-preference enrolment: Parents may apply for non-preference enrolment if a student does not meet preference criteria. Non-preference enrolment is dependent upon vacancies and restricted to a percentage of the maximum roll as specified in our Integration Agreement.
The Enrolment Process
Parents are welcome to complete the enrolment enquiry form. The school office will then respond to arrange an appointment with the school Principal.
Having met with the Principal, your application for enrolment will be confirmed and our office administrator will arrange school visits for your child. These visits enable the teacher to assess the learning needs of the prospective student and for the student to experience the classroom environment. After completing the school visits, enrolment will be confirmed with the parents/guardians by the Principal.
New students are accepted for enrolment at the beginning of each school term throughout the school year.
Additional Information
- Each child must be enrolled at a registered school by the time they turn 6.
- If a parent wishes to enrol a child with additional needs, the school may need to apply for appropriate resources from the Ministry of Education.
- If a student has been indefinitely suspended from another school, the Board of Trustees will meet and consider the individual case.
- When a student is enrolled, their relevant details are recorded in the Ministry’s ENROL database.
