YEAR 7 APPLICATION PROCESS (during Grade 6)

The application process for Year 7 enrolment is determined by the Victorian Department of Education and Training (DET) and is initially undertaken by the primary school your child attends during Grade 6. It is not possible to apply for a place in Year 7 before your child is in Grade 6. Families residing interstate and overseas when their child is in Grade 6 are advised to contact the school to make a direct application.

Our school zone is available on findmyschool.vic.gov.au which hosts the most up-to-date information about Victorian school zones.  Students residing in this zone are guaranteed a place at our school, which is determined on the basis of your permanent residential address.  The Department provides guidance through the Placement Policy to ensure that students have access to their designated neighbourhood school and the freedom to choose other schools, subject to facility limitations.  

You can find more information and answers to frequently asked questions on the Department’s website under School zones.

An enrolled student residing in the zone must live with his/her parents. Staying with a relative or friend does not qualify guardianship and is not a criterion for enrolment unless supported by the relevant papers endorsed by the Family Court of Australia.

Please be aware, the requirement for eligibility is permanent residency within the zone. The intention of the neighbourhood zone policy is for residency to continue for the duration of the child’s enrolment at the school. Residency must be taken up and authenticated by a member of the Principal Team or representative before the enrolment procedure can commence.

Proof of permanent residence within the school’s designated neighbourhood zone will be required for all applications seeking a place on residential criteria. It is the responsibility of the family to provide satisfactory evidence to the school to demonstrate their permanent residency. A private rental agreement (between a landlord and tenant) will not be acceptable.

Applications for transfer to Frankston High School from nearby schools on residential criteria may not be granted.

At all times course choices from Year 9 onwards may be limited since priority will be given to currently enroled students.
