School Enrolment Management Plan
Nanango State High 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, Nanango State High 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
Nanango State High School has a maximum student enrolment capacity of 666 students.
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.
Nanango State High School operates under equidistant catchment area.
Nanango State High School is adjacent to Yarraman State School which only provides schooling from Years Prep–9. Therefore Nanango State High School provides Years 10–12 to a wider catchment area. This means that the school has 2 different catchment areas, i.e. 1 for junior secondary (for Years 7–9) and another for senior secondary (Years 10–12).
The school's catchment map is available from
EdMap.
Out-of-catchment application
Out-of-catchment students applying for enrolment at the school are placed on a waiting list, assessed in order of receipt and prioritised as follows:
- For secondary schools with a wider catchment area for Years 11–12:
- Students who live within the senior secondary catchment but not within the junior secondary catchment.
- All other out-of-catchment enrolment applications.
Enrolment policy and procedure
The enrolment policy includes further information about in-catchment and out-of-catchment enrolments, acceptance and assessment processes, as well as any associated fees and decisions on enrolments.
