how WA school catchments work

WA public schools have local-intake areas defined by the Department of Education. Living in the local-intake area gives priority for enrolment.

enrolment notes

Some schools (selective entry, gifted, specialist programs) have separate application processes outside local-intake rules.

other states

catchment data and policies change — always confirm enrolment eligibility directly with the school. Western Australianon-government (catholic, independent) schools accept enrolments from anywhere and aren't catchment-restricted.
