Halcombe School Enrolment Scheme Halcombe
School has an Enrolment Scheme to manage its growing roll. The
Enrolment Scheme determines who can enrol at the school each
year. A
description and map of
the Halcombe School "Home Zone" are available to download and
copies are also available at the Office. All students who live
within the home zone are entitled to enrol at the school.
Out of Zone Enrolments:
Each year the Board 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.
This will be notified 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. Priority is given in
the following order to applicants who: * are a sibling of a
current student * are a sibling of a former student *
are the child of a former student * are the child of an
employee of the school or the child of a member of the Board
* all others.
