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
Student enrolments have increased substantially since 2012 with many families choosing our school as an excellent site for learning. In response to this growth, 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:
