The guidelines for development and operation of enrolment schemes are issued under section 11G (3) of the Education Act 1989 for the purpose of describing the basis on which the Secretary’s powers in relation to enrolment schemes will be exercised.
Automatic enrolment only applies to those prospective students that live within the Home Zone. For out of zone prospective students, including siblings of current students, the out of zone process detailed below will apply.
Out-of-Zone Enrolments for the 2026 Intake
The deadline for receipt of applications for 2026 out-of-zone enrolments has passed
The number of Out of Zone enrolment applications received were fewer than the number of places offered and therefore everyone who submitted an application prior to the deadline will recieve an offer of place for 2026.
All students who live within the home zone described below and shown on the map shall be entitled to enrol at the school.
