Enrolment Categories, Gateways and Entry Criteria
| Enrolment Category | Gateway | Entry Criteria |
|---|---|---|
| Access | Exceptional arts and sports performance | Student is an elite athlete, dancer, musician, sports person or an outstanding actor or performer whose development programme precludes attendance at a reasonably convenient school. |
Enrolment applications require a letter of attestation from the formally constituted and recognised national body for the activity:
(a) attesting that the student’s exceptional attributes mean that they are likely to either represent New Zealand or develop to the top of the field for their age-group; and
(b) confirming that the programme planned for their development is appropriate and precludes attendance at a reasonably convenient school; and
(c) advising the likely duration of enrolment; and
(d) providing an educational profile from the student’s previous school. |
| Access | Geographic isolation | Student is unable to attend a reasonably convenient school because of its distance or inaccessibility from their home.
To qualify, the student’s nearest school for their age and or gender, and where the primary language of tuition is English or Māori, as preferred, or school bus route or public transport must be:
(a) more than 3.2 kilometres from their gateway, increasing to 4.8 kilometres if the student is 10 years of age or over (private road distance does not count); or
(b) located behind a geographic barrier preventing reasonable access to a school, suitable public transport or school bus route.
The Ministry of Education’s School Transport Service Agents are the distance confirming agencies.
