The Enrolment Process
Enrolling your child in a Queensland state school is a straightforward process designed to ensure students are placed in the most suitable educational setting for their needs. The first step is to contact your chosen school to express your interest and collect an enrolment pack, either in person or via the school’s website. If the school is subject to an Enrolment Management Plan, you’ll need to check that your residential address falls within the school's catchment area. This can be done using the EdMap – Catchment Map on the Department of Education’s website. Priority is generally given to students who live within the catchment, although out-of-catchment applications may be considered depending on capacity. A separate application form has to be completed as part of this process.
As part of the enrolment process, parents and carers will need to complete the official enrolment application form and provide supporting documents. These typically include your child’s birth certificate, proof of residential address (such as a utility bill or lease agreement), and any relevant legal or medical documents. For Prep enrolment, your child must turn five by June 30 in the year they start school. Once all paperwork has been submitted, our amazing Office Staff will organise and enrolment interview with a member of the school leadership team.
Once this has concluded, uniforms can be purchased and your child is set to begin their journey at Morayfield East SS.
