An enrolment interview with the Principal is essential prior to a student commencing. Each parent of a child who is of compulsory school age has the legal obligation to ensure their child is enrolled and attends a school, on every school day for the educational program in which the child is enrolled, unless the parent has a reasonable excuse.

Enrolment Management Plan
In response to student number increases, as of 9 June 2017, Glennie Heights State School became Enrolment Managed and developed a plan for responding to all applications.
The Department of Education (DoE) is responsible for providing facilities to meet the educational needs of students residing within a school's catchment area. A School Enrolment Management Plan (School EMP) is introduced in a state school which is nearing its Student Enrolment Capacity. In order to ensure sufficient facilities are available for in-catchment students, Principals of these schools are required to restrict the enrolments from out-of-catchment students.
Schools are required to implement a School EMP when enrolments reach 80% of the school's Student Enrolment Capacity. A school's Student Enrolment Capacity is the number of students the school can accommodate within the existing learning spaces in the school.
To enrol in a school that has a School EMP in place, students must meet the eligibility criteria outlined in the school's School EMP document. The following link can assist you to better understand the processes:
