Moving to High School

Moving into Year 7 in a NSW Government school

In NSW Government Schools, applying to move from primary school to high school is a 2-step process:

• Step 1:  The first step is to complete a Moving to high school expression of interest.  When completing this form, you will be able to indicate which school(s) you would like your child to attend in Year 7.
• Step 2:  The second step is to submit an enrolment application, which will be issued to you by the high school after they have assessed your expression of interest.

To start this process for your Year 6 student please follow instructions in the following link:
