MACS Enrolment Policy
Preamble
Catholic Primary Schools, in the Parish of St Andrew’s exist to enable the church to carry out its responsibility to provide for the baptised Catholic child, a formation in faith, hence priority in enrolment is given to Catholic children.
Priority in enrolment will be given to Catholic children who reside in each of the school’s catchment area.
The enrolment of non-catholic children who reside in the school’s catchment area may take place only when their enrolment would not exclude Catholic children from the school.
Enrolments into Corpus Christi Primary School are taken in the following priority:
1. Baptised children of Corpus Christi Primary School’s catchment area.
2. Siblings of children already enrolled at the school
3. Catholic children from other schools within St Andrew’s Parish where a need exists.
4. Children from Orthodox religions residing in the school’s catchment area.
5. Catholic children from other Parishes determined by the Parish Priest and Principal.
6. Other non-Catholic Baptised Christians where a faith environment is sought for the child.
7. Non-Christians where a need is established, following a meeting with the Parish Priest/Principal.
