4998 - OUT OF ZONE SCHOOL APPLICATIONS

Hornery, Sonia to the Minister for Education
  1. How many out of zone applications were made in 2016 for placements in 2017 at each of the following schools:
    1. Lambton Public School;
    2. New Lambton Heights Public School;
    3. Lambton High School;
    4. Callaghan College Jesmond;
    5. Callaghan College Wallsend;
    6. New Lambton Public School?
Answer -

I'm advised that all schools are required to follow the Department of Education's enrolment policy. Every eligible student who wishes to attend a New South Wales public school will be given a place at their local school. Where non-local enrolment is possible and places exceed availability, a placement panel is formed. The placement panel considers non-local enrolment applications in line with the department's policy.
