Enrolments for 2015

Who needs to enrol?

All school-aged children must be enrolled in school and attend every day – this is the law.
In Western Australia, children can start their education in Kindergarten. Compulsory schooling starts the following year in Pre-primary.
All children must attend school up until they are 16 years old. Sixteen and 17 year olds must be enrolled in school or a training organisation, be employed or be in a combination of school/training/employment.
You need to apply to enrol your children in school for 2015 if they are:

• starting Kindergarten – 4 years old by 30 June 2015
• starting Pre-primary, the first year of compulsory school – 5 years old by 30 June 2015
• starting Year 7, the first year of secondary school in 2015
• starting Year 8
• changing schools.

To enrol your child in public school for 2015, you will need to submit your application for enrolment by Friday 25 July 2014.

Every child from Pre-primary to Year 12 is guaranteed a place at their local public school.
