School Enrolment Management Plan

Bentley Park College 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, Bentley Park College may be unable to meet this obligation in the future unless action is taken to manage enrolments. The Principal must restrict the enrolment of out-of-catchment students to ensure in-catchment students can enrol at their local state school without requiring additional facilities.

Student enrolment capacity

Bentley Park College has a maximum student enrolment capacity of 2,270 students.

The number of students entering Prep in any given year must not exceed 150 students in 6 classrooms, unless there are more than 150 students enrolling from within the catchment area.

Local catchment area

A school's local catchment area is the defined geographical area from which the school is to have its core intake of students.

Bentley Park College operates under a negotiated catchment area.

As Bentley Park College is a Prep to Year 12 campus, it has separate catchment areas for Primary and Secondary.

The school's catchment map is available from EdMap .

Out-of-catchment application

Out-of-catchment students applying for enrolment at the College are placed on a waiting list, assessed in order of receipt and prioritised as follows:

  • For P-12 schools:
    • Primary school-aged siblings of students currently enrolled in the secondary campus.
    • Secondary school-aged siblings of students currently enrolled in the primary campus.

(Please note: As per the section above, siblings of current students who reside outside the catchment are eligible to enrol at the school, as long as they are applying for enrolment at the same campus.)

  • All other enrolment applications.

Gazettal date

This updated version of the School Enrolment Management Plan for Bentley Park College was gazetted on 14 September 2018.

The School Enrolment Management Plan is internally reviewed each year, and if required, updated to reflect any changes to student enrolment capacity and/or Programs of Excellence.
