Enrol

Enrolling in Your Local School

In NSW public education, every school has a local enrolment area based on where families live. Children who live within the designated area are guaranteed a place at their local public school. Families living outside the area can still apply for enrolment, depending on available places and placement criteria.

Before enrolling, families should confirm their local school by using the NSW Department of Education’s School Finder tool. This helps ensure a smooth enrolment process and assists schools with planning for new students.
