Student Enrolment Information. 

                            ​Enrolment Application Process                                                       
1.       APPLICATION TO ENROL 
  • Enrolments open early Term 3 in the year prior to commencement.
  • Parent/Carer downloads or collects a hard copy of the Enrolment Package. 
  • Parent/Carer completes Application to Enrol, providing all required documentation in the parent checklist (see page 28) and submits application directly to first preference school. 
  • It must be understood that submission of the Application to Enrol and documentation does not guarantee an offer of enrolment.                          
2.       PRINCIPAL/SCHOOL INTERVIEW WITH FAMILY
  • Family interviews begin in Term 3  depending on school procedures.  The interview focus will be to determine the needs of each student.
  • When enrolling a student with a disability and additional needs, the Principal, in consultation with appropriate personnel, is required to follow the Ascertainment Process for the Enrolment of Students with Diverse Learning Needs. 
  • If a student or parent/carer is on a Visa, the school will liaise with the Attendance Officer at CEDWW prior to any enrolment offer being made.
​3.      CONFIRMATION OF OFFER AND ACCEPTANCE OF ENROLMENT ​
  • Parents/Carers receive a written enrolment offer from the school. 
  • Parents/Carers need to confirm in writing their acceptance of this offer.  All parents/guardians will be required to complete an ‘Enrolment Agreement’. This will be supplied by each school after acceptance is received.
  • Students may also be placed on a waiting list.  Any formalised waiting list is to be prioritised and procedurally fair.  Appeals against the decision shall be made firstly to the Principal and then to the Director of Catholic Education or delegate at CEDWW.                                                             
4.      ORIENTATION SESSIONS FOR STUDENTS 
  • Orientation/Transition Programs for incoming students are usually held in Terms 3 or 4. The arrangements may vary depending on the school and the needs of the students.
