2027 New Entrant Enrolments - Out of Zone
At Carlton School we operate an enrolment zone in order to reduce the risk of overcrowding. Students who reside in the home zone have an automatic right to enrol at our school. Full details of the enrolment zone boundaries can be found here.
If you would like your child to attend Carlton in 2027 and you live outside our home zone, you must apply to participate in the ballot. We have up to 20 out of zone new entrant spaces available for 2027
Applications close on Monday 12th October 2026. If there are more applications than places available, selection will be by random ballot within each priority group. If required, the ballot will be held on Friday 16th October 2026.
All out of zone families will be advised of the result of the application by Wednesday 21st October 2026.
We encourage students who live within the home zone to complete the enrolment form as soon as possible.
Please contact the school office if you have any questions regarding enrolments for 2027.
