Proof of residence within the home zone may be required.

Each year the board will determine the number of places which are likely to be available in that year or in the following year for the enrolment of students who live outside the home zone. The board will publish this information by notice in a daily or community newspaper circulating in the area served by the school. The notice will indicate how many out of zone places are available and will specify a date. If there are more enrolments than places available, applications will be processed by ballot in the following order of priority:

First Priority:
This priority category is not applicable at this school because the school does not run a special programme approved by the Secretary of Education.

Second Priority:
will be given to applicants who are siblings of current students.

Third Priority:
will be given to applicants who are siblings of former students.

Fourth Priority:
will be given to applicants where a parent is a former student of the school.

Fifth Priority:
will be given to applicants who are children of board employees.

Sixth Priority:
will be given to all other applicants.

If there are more applicants groups than there are places available, selection within each priority group will be by a ballot conducted in accordance with instructions issued by the Secretary under Section 11 G(1) of the Education Act 1989. Parents will be informed of the results by email.

Applicants seeking second or third priority status may be required to give proof of a sibling relationship.
