Dear Parents and Carers of 2024 Prep Children,

Enrolling your child, or children, in Prep is an important choice. The Department’s findmyschool website allows you to locate your designated neighbourhood government school based on your permanent residential address. The website is the official and most up to date source of information on school zone maps. 

Your child has a right to enrol in their designated neighbourhood school; this right is set out in the Education and Training Reform Act 2006. Your designated neighbourhood school is determined on the basis of your permanent residential address. Every designated neighbourhood school is a great school that provides a supportive environment that fosters the emotional and intellectual growth of their students.

Applications to schools other than your designated neighbourhood school are considered subject to the school having available spaces, as outlined in the Department’s Placement Policy.

Parents and Carers are requested to submit the Enrolment Enquiry Form to the school at irymple.ps@education.vic.gov.au
