This form has been designed to support students to apply for a place at Swinburne Senior Secondary College. If a student is offered a place at the school, a Supporting Documents form, with attached supporting documentation and a School Enrolment Form, may need to be completed to finalise enrolment.

Your child’s permanent residence is the address where they spend the majority of their days during the school week. If they spend an equal amount of time at two addresses, both are considered their permanent address and your child will be entitled to enrol in the designated neighbourhood school for either address. Please provide proof of permanent residence to the school as part of your application. The school will let you know what proof is required. For more information, please refer to the Residential Address Checklist, available at: www.education.vic.gov.au/Documents/parents/going-to-school/100-point-addresschecklist.pdf. When assessing your application, the school may make enquiries to verify the information provided, such as checking the electoral roll at an Australian Electoral Commission office or the Victorian Electoral Commission head office; checking with a real estate agent; or checking whether there are any regulations/codes limiting the occupancy, for example if a rental property is a studio or one bedroom unit.

Please provide information about your current school.

This form should be completed by parents or carers who are responsible for enrolling their child in school. It is the responsibility of the person completing this form to consult with all other adults that need to be involved in the enrolment process. If required information is not provided or there is a dispute between parents about a child’s enrolment, the enrolling principal is required to consider the student’s education and wellbeing when deciding whether to defer or accept the enrolment.
