Non-local enrolments

Where non local placements exceed availability of positions the school will establish a Placement Panel to consider and make recommendations on all non-local enrolment applications. The application is submitted to the non local area placement panel consisting of:
- School Representative - Principal or Deputy Principal
- Parents and Citizens Representative
- Principal Chairing the Panel - casting vote if needed
A written application on the non-local area application form must be completed covering the following:
- siblings currently attending Singleton High School
- attendance at partner primary school
- academic performance and achievements and a demonstrated commitment to learning
- physical, emotional and medical needs related to a student’s well being
- safety and supervision of student before and after school
- availability and /or combination of subjects
- compassionate circumstances
When addressing the criteria it should be clear and concise and specifically prove the case for enrolment of the student, to the placement panel. The panel will evaluate the application and make a recommendation to accept or reject the application based against the criteria.
