Purpose of this consultation#

This consultation is about a proposed change to Upper Hutt School's enrolment scheme.

We want to hear and understand community views before we make any changes, especially about the proposed home zone and how it would work in practice.

Read the information before you participate in the consultation process. It includes a map and a written description of the proposed enrolment scheme.

The commencement date will be confirmed.

Enrolment schemes#

Enrolment schemes help school boards manage enrolments and make sure children living in a school's home zone can enrol at the school.

The purpose of an enrolment scheme for a state school is to:

help the board to manage the risk of overcrowding
provide a fair and transparent process for enrolment
make sure we are making the best use of schooling facilities across the network of local schools.

What is changing#

A key part of an enrolment scheme is the home zone. The proposed amendment to the home zone for Upper Hutt School sets out a geographic area from within which students would have a right to enrol at the school.
