Children living outside the school zone can make an out-of-zone application, with places for out-of-zone children being allotted by way of a ballot. The Board of Trustees decide each August how many places will be available (if any). They take into account existing and projected rolls as it is preferred to have two classes at each year level to avoid composite classes e.g. mixed year groups.
The Board will publish this information by notice in a daily or community newspaper circulating in the area served by the school and on the school website. The notice will indicate how applications are to be made and will specify a date by which all applications must be received.
Applicants are accepted in this order:
If there are more applicants in the second, third, fourth, or fifth priority groups than there are places available, selection within the priority group will be by ballot conducted in accordance with instructions issued by the Secretary of Education under Section 11G(1) of the Education Act 1989. Parents will be informed of the date of any ballot by notice in a daily or community newspaper circulating in the area served by the school.
Applicants seeking second or third priority status may be required to give proof of a sibling relationship.
