Enrolment

​Children Living Within the School’s Home Zone 

Children living within the school’s home zone are entitled to enrol at Mangere Central School. This means that if you give an in-zone address when you apply for enrolment, the address must be your permanent place of residence. 

Children must be living with their parents or legal guardian (Court documentation is required to verify the guardian). If the school finds that you have given false information, the school may cancel your child's enrolment. 

Children Living Outside the School’s Home Zone

Each year, if spaces are available, the board will place a notice in the local newspaper as required, stating: 

• how many out of zone places are likely to be available; 
• the date by which applications for out of zone places must be received; 
• the date(s) of any ballot(s) for out of zone places. 

​In accordance with Government Legislation, out of zone students who apply for enrolment at the school must be accepted in the following order of priority:

• Priority 1: students accepted for enrolment in a special programme run by the school; 
• Priority 2: brothers and sisters of current students;  
• Priority 3: brothers and sisters of former students; 
• Priority 4: children of former students; 
• Priority 5: children of board employees or children of board members; 
• Priority 6: all other students.
