Non-local enrolment

A non-local enrolment is a student whose permanent residence is beyond the designated local area.

Parents or carers living outside the school’s designated local area may apply to enrol their child at the school by completing the EOI to enrol which is available through the school’s administration office.

The EOI to enrol is developed by the school and requires the applicant to address the selection criteria and provide supporting documentation.

Non-local enrolment applications are considered by schools that can accommodate the child. In determining whether the school can accommodate a child the enrolment panel considers:

  • the child’s age
  • the type of school
  • the resources of the school
  • the existing number of classrooms and
  • other facilities at the school.

Non-local enrolment applications will be considered with reference to each applicant’s residential address and the following prioritised criteria:

  • contribute positively to the school values of respect, success, and responsibility
  • availability of subjects or combinations of subjects
  • siblings of a child who is currently enrolled at the school in the year the applicant will commence their enrolment.

Please note: Satisfying one or more of these criteria does not guarantee enrolment.

Non-local enrolments should complete and submit:

  • The EOI to enrol which is available through the school’s administration office.
  • A letter outlining their reasons for seeking enrolment at Granville Boys High School.
  • Two documents with proof of address. 

Enrolment Panel:

The EOI to enrol is developed by the school and requires the applicant to address the selection criteria and provide supporting documentation. If the school has a vacancy, the Enrolment Panel will consider the out-of-area applicant and recommend an interview or decline an application based on the out-of-area selection criteria outlined in the How to Enrol Implementation Guide published above. Interviews are NOT a guarantee of enrolment.
