Enrolment Zone

All students who live within the home zone described below shall be eligible to enrol at the school.

Addresses on both sides of boundary roads are considered in-zone unless specified otherwise.

Applications for enrolments will be processed in the following order of priority:

  • First priority: is not applicable at this school because the school does not run a special programme approved by the Secretary for Education.
  • Second priority: must be given to applicants who are siblings of current students.
  • Third priority: must be given to applicants who are siblings of former students.
  • Fourth priority: must be given to any applicant who is a child of a former student of the school.
  • Fifth priority: must be given to any applicant who is either a child of an employee of the board of the school or a child of a member of the board of the school.
  • Sixth priority: must be given to all other applicants.

If there are more applicants in the second, third, fourth, fifth or sixth priority groups than there are places available, selection within the priority group will be by ballot conducted in accordance with instructions by the Secretary, under Section 11G (1) on 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 may be required to give proof of a sibling relationship.

Please contact our enrolment officer Tatiana Alsayyad for information around enrolling at Te Aratai.
