Out-of-Catchment Enrolments

  • No automatic acceptance: PBC isn’t currently taking students who live outside their catchment area unless there’s a valid reason allowed under the school’s Enrolment Management Plan (EMP) or the Education Act.

  • What you need to do: If you think your child has a valid reason to be accepted (for example, special circumstances listed in the EMP), you can still apply but you must include supporting evidence with the enrolment form.

  • EMP available: Please find below the school’s Enrolment Management Plan  enrolment-management-plan.pdf.

  • Excellence Programs: Students who live outside the catchment are not eligible to trial for the school’s Excellence Programs (Academic, Sports, or Arts) at this stage. However, if your child is later accepted into the school as an out-of-catchment student, participation in an Excellence Program could be discussed during the enrolment interview.

Students who reside outside the catchment area may only be enrolled in accordance with the conditions outlined below:

  • ​Children and young people who are subject to child protection orders that grant guardianship or custody to the Chief Executive Officer of the Department of Communities, Child Safety and Disability Services (Child Safety Services).

  • Students who live outside the catchment area and are verified with a disability can enrol in the school to attend the specialised disability program if it is the closest program to their home and meets their individualised needs.

  • Students who have been excluded from another school, dependent upon the conditions related to the exclusion.

  • Sibling Enrolment - ​If the enrolled sibling was residing within the school's catchment area at the time of their enrolment but has since moved out of catchment, the sibling enrolment policy still applies based on the original address at the time of the initial enrolment.
