Year 7 entry in 2022

Applications for Year 7 in 2022 are closed.

Year 7 entry in 2023

Families will apply for Year 7 entry in 2023 through the Department’s state-wide registration of interest process for students to go to public secondary schools. This registration process for families will generally start in Term 2, 2022.

If through the registration of interest process, demand from families exceeds places available, consideration will be given to:

• distance from the child’s home to the school
• social and family links to the school
• curriculum opportunities available at the school (excluding special interest programs)
• transportation and location convenience

In some cases, automatic entry may be applied, where:

• the child has a sibling attending the school at the same time
• the child has received and accepted an offer to participate in our special interest Dance program
• the child identifies as Aboriginal through the Enter for Success program (by the end of Term 4)
• the child has been granted enrolment due to special consideration, such as children in care or guardianship order made under the Children and Young People (Safety) Act 2017.

Families not offered enrolment, or late applications after the close of the state-wide registration of interest process (end of Term 2) will be placed on a ranked waiting list and contacted by the school if a place becomes available in Term 4.

Applications will be considered if or when places exist. In these cases, applications will be considered based on siblings at the school, the distance of the child’s residence from the school and any other personal needs, such as curriculum (excluding special interest programs), transportation/location convenience, and social/family links to the school.

Where your child is placed on the waiting list will not be released.
