Enrolment

Our school can help with enrolment queries throughout the year.

Local enrolment area

Check your address on School Finder to see if it is within our local intake area. Most schools have designated local enrolment areas. Note: local enrolment areas are subject to change.

How to enrol

If you live in our intake area and would like to apply to enrol at our school, start by submitting an online enrolment application. Online enrolment is currently only available for Australian or New Zealand citizens and permanent residents.

If you are not able to apply online or you prefer not to, download the paper application to enrol (PDF 768.4KB) form. Please complete the form in English. A translated application to enrol may help you do this.

Online enrolment can also be used for out-of-area enrolment. Please note that out-of-area enrolment procedures are subject to the department’s enrolment policy.

Enrolment applications are finalised at the school.

Fairfield Heights Public School: Non-Local Enrolments

Our school has an enrolment cap which is the number of students that can be enrolled at our school based on the school’s permanent accommodation.

At the current time, our school has reached the enrolment cap set by the NSW Department of Education.

For this reason, our school will not be able to take non-local students unless there are exceptional circumstances (see below).

Exceptional circumstances include, in priority order:

·         siblings already enrolled in our school

·         safety and supervision of the student before and after school

·         proximity and access to the school

·         compassionate circumstances.

The non-local enrolment application, once submitted, will only be considered if determined by the Principal to meet grounds for enrolment under exceptional circumstances.

The Principal will then seek the approval of the Director, Educational Leadership to make an offer to enrol the student.

Once a decision has been made the Principal will contact the parent.
