School Enrolment Management Plan
Palmview State Primary 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, Palmview State Primary 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
Palmview State Primary School has a maximum student enrolment capacity of 540 students.
The number of students entering Prep in any given year must not exceed 180 in 8 classrooms, unless there are more than 180 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.
Palmview State Primary School operates under a negotiated catchment area.
The school's catchment map is available from
EdMap.
Other students who are entitled to enrol as if in-catchment
In addition to the criteria outlined in the Enrolment Management Plan, the following groups of students will also be entitled to enrol, even though they may reside outside the school’s catchment area.
- Students whose parent or legal guardian is employed by the school, or permanently employed by Palmview State Secondary College or Palmview State Special School.
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.
