Enrolment Scheme
The Ministry of Education has required Campion College to put in place an Enrolment Scheme for applications for entry into the College so that the College maintains student numbers within its maximum roll of 512. Within the maximum roll, guidelines of 78 in each of Years 7,8,9 and 10 have been established to avoid an imbalance in the school roll and to provide for the delivery of quality education.
The Integration Agreement for Campion College gives preference of enrolment to students whose parents have established a particular or general religious connection with the Special Character of the college. The New Zealand Catholic Bishops’ Conference has determined the criteria for preference of enrolment in Integrated Catholic Schools.
Applications for Enrolment will be processed in the following order of priority.
First Priority is given to preference students living in the area of convenience:
- Puketawai to the north (just north of Tolaga Bay)
- Matawai Township to the west
- Nuhaka Township to the south
A student who is boarding privately within the area of convenience is considered within the first priority.
Amongst such applicants, priority will be given in the following order:
- Applicants who are Year 6 students at St Mary’s Catholic Primary School (Gisborne).
- Applicants who have attended another Catholic school in the year preceding enrolment.
- Applicants who are siblings of current students.
- Applicants who are the children of Board employees and/or Board members.
- Applicants who are siblings of former students.
- All other applicants.
- Second Priority is given to preference students who live outside the area of convenience. Amongst such applicants, priority will be given in the order described for the first priority.
- Third Priority is given to non-preference students who live within the area of convenience. Amongst such applicants, priority will be given in the order described for the first priority.
- Fourth Priority is given to non-preference students who live outside the area of convenience. Amongst such applicants, priority will be given in the order described for the first priority.
