  • No employer subsidy towards the education of the student is provided; and
  • there is no suitable local education service available; and
  • declare that they intend returning to New Zealand.

Three years is the maximum total period of enrolment for any one student.

Referral

Alienation

Student is alienated from the education system.

An alienated student is one who local schools are unwilling to enrol or who is unwilling to attend the local schools.

The Ministry of Education is the referral agency and the Ministry’s local office manager or regional office Student Support Manager will approve the enrolment.

The referral letter must:

(a) clearly state the arrangements made to supervise the student’s study with the School; and

(b) where available, be accompanied by an educational profile.

These enrolments will be reviewed by the School and the Ministry of Education as agreed on enrolment. The review purpose is to ascertain whether a face-to-face schooling option is available and appropriate.
