School Enrolment Management Plan
Gilston State School recognises as its prime obligation, the provision of access to an appropriate educational service for students whose principal place of residence is within the school’s catchment area.
Because of enrolment capacity and growth, Gilston State School may be unable to meet this obligation in the future unless action is taken to manage enrolments. The Principal must restrict the enrolment of out-of-catchment students to ensure in-catchment students can enrol at their local state school, without requiring additional facilities.
Student enrolment capacity
Gilston State School has a maximum student enrolment capacity of 711 students.
The number of students entering Prep in any given year must not exceed 125 in 5 classrooms, unless there are more than 125 students enrolling from within the catchment area.
Local catchment area
A school's local catchment area is the defined geographical area from which the school is to have its core intake of students.
Gilston State School operates under an equidistant catchment area.
The school's catchment map is available from
