OUR PROCESS
Local Intake Exceptions
Ashdale Secondary College receives many applications within its local intake area, which usually means it cannot take enrolment from outside the local intake area. Once the College has confirmed the number of local intake area enrolments, applications from children outside the local intake area can be assessed from the first Friday of Term 3 each year.
The priority for students who live outside the local intake area is in the following order:
1
A child who is accepted into a specialist program, including Approved Specialist Programs (secondary schools).
2
A child with a sibling enrolled at the College for that year; this does not include a sibling who has gained enrolment through specialist programs, including Approved Specialist Programs (secondary schools).
3
A child who lives closest to the College (not closest to the boundary of a local intake area school).
year 7-10 enrolments
Unique Student Identifier Number Requirements
All students (Years 7-12) must have a USI number on enrolment.
Appeals
Should you disagree with the College’s decision regarding your “Expression of Interest”, you can appeal to the North Metropolitan Education Regional Office (NMERO).
The NMERO will then seek to verify whether the process for managing the enrolment decision at the school complied with departmental policies and guidelines. Before submitting an appeal, it is recommended that you contact the Principal or the Manager of District Operations at the NMERO to discuss your grievance informally. Appeal forms are available from either the school or the NMERO.
For parents of students with a disability–If you remain dissatisfied with the decision about your child’s placement, you may request an independent review of the decision. You should write your request to the Director-General, through the relevant District Director. A Disabilities Advisory Panel will be convened to review the placement decision. The panel will provide an opportunity for you to present your case. The District Director will be able to provide you with detailed information about the panel.
