Enrolments
Ascot State School is a high performing state school that prides itself on its strong parent-community partnerships to enhance and support student learning. As a high performing, proud independent public school, many families choose to live in our catchment area in order to secure a place at our school for their children. We enrol all students whose principal place of residence is within the school’s catchment area.
Enrolment at Ascot State School is subject to our Enrolment Management Plan (PDF, 708 KB).
In-catchment Enrolments
Students must reside in our catchment
area to be eligible to enrol at Ascot State School and parents must be able to provide the
following:
Proof of child’s age and identity
Original birth certificate - the purpose of a birth
certificate is not only to verify the child's details (i.e. age and identity),
but also to establish that the person applying for the enrolment is a parent of
the child, and therefore eligible and obliged to enrol them OR
Passport (if the child
is born overseas)
Visa (if applicable) International Passport Holders - the student's passport, visa and an
"Authority to Enrol" email from Education
Queensland International
Proof of Residency
Parents who wish to enrol
their child at Ascot State School are required to provide proof of their
residential address to ensure they reside within the school’s catchment area. The following documents are
required:
Home ownership –
unconditional house contract or current rates notice OR
Lease agreement – must
be current at the time your child commences enrolment at Ascot State School AND
Current gas / electricity
bill at the in-catchment address
Please note: if the
proof of residency cannot be presented, a Statuary Declaration must be provided.
Out-of-catchment Enrolments
Ascot State School
gives preference to in-catchment enrolments as these families support our
school and local community. If there are
available spaces within our school facilities, the Principal may decide to open
out-of-catchment enrolments.
For out-of-catchment
enrolments for 2021, there is no longer a requirement for families to be
inconvenienced by lining up in the street to enrol your child. We are moving to an online enrolment
process.
On Friday 1 May 2020 at 10am,
we will be accepting out-of-catchment enrolments. Our preference is for online lodgement
through emailing outofcatchmentenrolment@ascotss.eq.edu.au or by delivering your completed enrolment
form to the school office after 10am.
Please note this email will not be activated until 10am on Wednesday 1 May 2020.
Out-of-catchment
enrolments will be processed in the order they are received, but this does not
guarantee enrolment at Ascot State School.
Enrolments are considered firstly on year level vacancies. Enrolment interviews will occur with the Principal or Delegate who will
make the final decision on whether your child can attend Ascot State School.
