Is there no waiting list or parents volunteering scheme to join the school?
Do these schools have affiliation towards religion and enrollment priority is given to specific group?
You get enrolled into the school if you live in the catchment area (for NSW at least) and those outside the catchment area can apply to get in if IIRC.Do these schools have affiliation towards religion and enrollment priority is given to specific group?
Yes - some schools only accept those of a certain religion, my manager said he tried to enroll his kid into a Catholic school but could not pass the somewhat harsher requirements - had to enroll the kid into a different Christian school further away.
Can't say I fully understand the requirements as I'm pretty much an agnostic.
