Other Enrolments
Kirwan State School recognises as its prime obligation, the provision of access to an appropriate educational service for students whose principal place of residence is within the school’s catchment area.
Because of enrolment capacity and growth Kirwan State School may be unable to meet this obligation in the future, unless action is taken now to manage enrolments. The Principal must restrict enrolment of out-of-catchment students to ensure in-catchment students can enrol at their local state school, without requiring additional facilities.
This School Enrolment Management Plan (School EMP) sets out the conditions under which students may be enrolled into Kirwan State School subject to any other requirements or limitations in:
•
the Education (General Provisions) Act 2006
This School EMP is supported by:
•
Enrolment in State Primary, Secondary and Special Schools procedure
•
School Enrolment Management Plans (School EMP) procedure

Kirwan State School has a maximum Student Enrolment Capacity of 902 students.
The number of students entering Prep in any given year is not to exceed 125 in 5 classrooms, unless there are more than 125 students enrolling from within the catchment area.
