Out of Zone Enrolments
Each year the Board of Trustees will
determine the number of places which are likely to be available in the
following year for the enrolment of students who live outside the home
zone. The Board will publish this
information by notice in a daily or community newspaper circulating in the area
served by the school. The notice will indicate how applications are to be made
and will specify a date by which all applications must be received.
Applications for enrolments will be
processed in the following order of priority:
First Priority
This priority category is not applicable at this school because
the school does not run a special programme approved by the Secretary.
Second Priority
Will be given to applicants who are siblings of current
students.
Third Priority
Will be given to applicants who are siblings of former students.
Fourth Priority
Will be given to applicants who are children of board employees.
Fifth Priority
Will be given
to all other applicants
If there are more applicants in the second,
third, fourth or fifth priority groups than there are places available,
selection within the priority group will be by a ballot conducted in accordance
with instructions by the Secretary under Section 11G(1) of the Education Act
1989. Parents will be informed of the date of any ballot by notice in a daily
or community newspaper circulating in the area served by the school.
Applicants seeking second or third priority status will be required to give proof of a sibling relationship.
